Do, Don’t Talk (Or Overthink)
Your brain is seven to eight times larger than expected for a mammal of your size. In other words, your brain is massive compared to the rest of you. Think your big brain can think through problems? It should, but often it cannot.
Well, sometimes it can. Yet we frequently fail to act. Without action, thinking becomes rather worthless.
There are countless reasons why we don’t act. It can feel overwhelming, too difficult, or we may lack sufficient resources.
The truth is that action leads to insight more often than insight leads to action.
Replace talking with doing. When you act, focus relentlessly (see what I did here?) on finding the quickest and cheapest way to test your assumptions.
Nothing teaches you more than experience.
