“Just one more book, and I’m ready.” Do you say that to yourself? I used to. I didn’t get tired of reading, and I still feel like I don’t have enough information or ideas. But I was ready to start.

Are you ready to start? There comes a time when you need to start. This is no time in particular, but you’re going to have to start sometime soon, so why not now? Action produces results. Reading does not. I’m not saying that reading is bad. I love to read and write, and it’s one of my favorite methods for learning new things.

What you need to do is take a look at the reading you are doing now, and the next few books you have on your must-read list. How much time is all that reading taking out of your schedule? Could you be using that time to start your business or grow an existing venture? Is reading and learning theory really the best use of your time, or are you ready to apply some of that theory to yourself?

I say it’s time for you to start. It’s time to move from theory to application. You can read and learn along the way.
