- The difference between talking about books and analyzing the filters you're reading them through
- Why you need coaching, training, or accountability to turn knowledge into real results
Notable Quotes
- "Reading alone rarely creates the transformation that we want. And the reason for it is because we read, and then we don't necessarily sit back and think about what it is that we read or analyze what it is that we read or pay attention to, how what it is that we read applies in our life or doesn't apply in our life."
- "Do you hide in books instead of changing what needs to be affected in your life and business? Do you read something, give all of this credit and awe and praise to the author while still self-deprecating yourself?"
- "If you are going to set a goal to read a certain amount of books this year, please also set a goal to analyze those books and analyze your behavior and choose differently and act differently."
