You Have Read So Many Books, But Why Are You Still Not Rich Yet?

    Reading books can’t make you rich. If it could, then the richest
    person in the world should be the librarian [​IMG]

    A lot of folks say reading books is not enough; one needs to take
    action on what has been learned from reading them in order to
    realize one’s dream.

    But that’s only half right.....

    To become rich, not only do you need to take action – you need to
    take the most productive actions.....and take a LOT of them.

    Here are two things you should do:


    One- Focus on what you do best.

    Rich marketers find out the most productive activities that they do
    – and then focus only on those activities that they do best.

    If you’re in the product creation business – focus on creating high
    quality products.

    If you’re an affiliate marketer – focus on promotion and traffic
    generation.


    Two- Multiply it 10 times.

    Swimming books can’t teach you swimming. You have to swim in the
    pool to pick that ability up.

    Swimming once a week in the pool can’t make you the best swimmer in
    town. You have to train everyday in order to achieve that.

    The biggest difference between success and yet-to-be-success lies
    in discipline and execution.

    The same principle applies to swimming, making money and a lot of
    things in life.

    Folks, find out the most productive core activity in your business,
    increase your action 10 times than what you are doing now, and
    you’ll be way richer than what you are in 2009.

    Wish you a great and abundant 2010 ahead!

    Steven

    great !
    i like how you describe it.

    if i may give an addition :
    1. Patient
    Becoming the best is not instant, you have to have patient, and make progress.
    Because many starter want to see the result quickly and ended with giving up.

    These points are very important.
    So many people purchase GB's of information here and there,but don't do any thing.
    Every one will ask you,how Could he make money online easily.
    How can he get the free traffic easily and they are burying themselves into the only one word EASILY.
    Which is very hard...

    I think you are absolutely right.

    That's why I am buying books with failed business experiences lately. I was fed up of reading success stories.

    It is also very important to know about the 80% of the people who started a business and failed (and why they failed).

    Nice tips and I think I couldn't agree with you more.But still I have to say the goal of reading is not only for money.
    Sometimes reading can make people energetic and smart.And sometimes if you want to arrive to the summit,you have
    to master the knowledge you should have.

    Excellent post! I run circles around many of my well read colleagues, most of whom are very bright. While they're reading the latest tips from the "gurus," I'm out there researching and learning what my market wants and why they want it. I focus on their terminology for my product or service, the actual benefits they desire from using my product or service, and emotional triggers that may influence them to buy now. I create my offer using the best marketing practices I know of and then I focus the majority of my efforts on promotion and marketing efforts.

    You are right. So many people come to forums and read, read, read but there is so much information they never actually get started as there is always something new or at least a new twist on things.

    TAKE ACTION!

    In my opinion every human being has a different set of gifts, talents and qualities, which therefore makes replicating what some people do very difficult. Sure you can use the same principles, but as far as creating something similar to what they've done - which is what many of these authors typically tend to suggest - I think you're really going to run into problems.
