Thinking is not doing
Very rarely do people actually need to be educated in order to perform well. In general, you know what you have to do.
Want to get rich? Be perceptive to opportunities and learn high value skills. Rich.
Want to get fit? Work out every day, diet well. Fit.
Want to get wise? Talk to those with more life experience, read the philosophers, and seek out difficult experiences yourself. Wise.
Do not allow yourself to be deceived into thinking that “study” always equals action. More often than not, taking time to “think” or taking time to “figure out more about it” is just code for “I don’t want to do what it takes, let me procrastinate a bit.”
Think less. Chances are you already know what you must do. Do more.
