I pulled this quote out of an INSIDERS conversation because I thought it needed to be highlighted.
You can't consume your way onto Team Producer.
I noticed this pattern here over the years after someone reads my messages.
After reading TMF , Unscripted , TGRRE , or any combination above, they don't start a business, they ramp up consumption...
More books...
More coaching programs...
More training programs...
More social media accounts...
In the end, it is MORE CONSUMPTION with no production. A lot of times we call this "action-faking" around here.
Yes, getting launched in business might require some consumption, but here's the thing: Only start CONSUMING when you've identified the problem, solution, value skew you're going to provide. Then your consumption is TARGETED.
Instead of taking a Udemy course on Python for the SAKE of TAKING IT, you're taking it to move the meter on your new venture.
PURPOSEFUL CONSUMPTION can help you get closer to your goals.
ACTION-FAKING CONSUMPTION will not.
Unfortunately, too many people around here continue to consume, thinking it will get them on board with Team Producer. Instead, they just remain on Team Consumer, another "mark" on some hustler's marketing funnel.
