Have you ever found yourself in this situation?

You’ve just read something – online or offline, watched a training video or been told something by someone you trust and respect and you find yourself saying – “Yep, I already knew that”.

I know I have far too many times in the past and I used to carry on by asking myself why, if I already knew it, haven’t I been putting it into action?

It doesn’t seem to matter what aspect of life we are talking about – happiness, health or wealth – business or private life – we frequently already have in our possession valuable information to make major steps forward in our lives but we fail to act upon the information we have for our own benefit.

Instead we continue to search and research for the answers as to how to improve our lives in so many ways when in actual fact everything we already there within us.

Can you relate to this scenario and is it a habit you want to overcome or more importantly need to overcome.

Then it is essential you change right now and start drawing on the resources, knowledge and ability you already have and take action right now.

The problem frequently comes down to our lack of belief in our own inner knowledge and ability and for that reason we continue to postpone our action until we find the next critical key to our success – and then the next bit and the next as each day slips by with the only habit being inaction.

Hence the reason, perhaps, you continue to read, listen, talk about what need to be done but don’t take it any further

Well that was my problem until I made a firm decision to change the habit. I made a commitment to believe in myself and take action with what I already knew and once I was moving forward with action then I fine tuned my action and my direction with any new information that came my way – that is if I thought the new information was going to be of benefit to the action I was already taking.

So now is your opportunity. Believe in yourself, totally. Take action now!

This post was prompted by an email I received today from a very informative and giving member of the online fraternity. He always gives good value and thought provoking ideas and today was no exception.

The penultimate paragraph of today’s email contained the words – ‘I bet you all knew that anyway and have heard the same information many times in the past.

And I could hear myself saying – ‘ Yep you’re, right, of course!’

Then I felt compelled to pass on my thoughts to you. Please take action with what you already now. Ready! Fire! Aim!
