If you are anything like me, then you have bought plenty. Have they worked for you? Most likely not.<\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s The Con?<\/h3>\n<p>The con in content is that no matter how great the content is, if you don\u2019t actually do it than you won\u2019t make progress.<\/p>\n<p>Like Jedi Master Yoda of Star War fame said to Luke Skywalker \u201cTry not. Do or do not, there is no try.\u201d In other words reading only or trying only will not help it is only in the doing that progress is made and victories are won.<\/p>\n<p>You are never going to change, your clients are never going to change if you don\u2019t get off your butt and start doing what you are learning or know what you are supposed to do. You have to take action. Practice what you preach in your <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">life coaching business<\/span>.<\/p>\n<h3>Why We Don\u2019t Take Action<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ve learned a lot about growing your <strong>life coaching business<\/strong> from plenty of experts and the great content you\u2019ve been reading, but something\u2019s just not clicking. Maybe you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed by all there is to do. Or maybe there are certain tasks like networking, writing your newsletter, or creating a webinar, that you know you need to do, but you are just not following through on them. This means that you know what to do, but you aren\u2019t doing what you know!<\/p>\n<p>All the content in the world is not going to help you in life, or in your coaching, or in your business. If you don\u2019t take action you will never have a great life coach business.<\/p>\n<h3>Take Action And Create a Great Life Coaching Business<\/h3>\n<p>Studies show that 90% of what stops us from doing something is fear. Some times that fear is founded and good fear but more likely it is an unfounded fear that is keeping you from taking action to create a great life coach business. It is a fear of how you would feel if you took that action.<\/p>\n<p>If the idea of taking action doesn\u2019t feel good to you, then you need to confront your feelings. You are not going to get anywhere until you conquer those fears. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.<\/p>\n<p>Ask yourself what is the worst thing that could happen to you? Then live it in your mind. Now that wasn\u2019t so bad, and now that you have already gone through it, then the real thing won\u2019t seem so bad.<\/p>\n<p>So don\u2019t let the con in content con you out of taking action and having a great <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">life coaching busines<\/span>s. Don\u2019t buy that myth that it is enough to just study the content. What is going to actually help is the doing.
