I finished reading Unscripted last night
. Here are the things that got imprinted into my brain:
When I read about action-faking it STUNG! I do this all the time and is probably one of the reasons why I am stuck on the scripted path.
I was totally looking at making money the wrong way. I know ask myself the question "How can I add value?".
This just clicks for me and totally makes sense. I have always heard about the feedback loop or getting feedback but it never really clicked until I read those 3 words.
I believe this sentence says it all!
Thanks @MJ DeMarco for writing Unscripted.
"Action-faking is when you take solitary and/or uncommitted action that is not part of a bigger process. Instead you're acting not to imbue real change but to feel good by momentarily fooling yourself about progress. Action-faking can be many things, from trivial busywork to data research to reading books - none of which coax progress."

"Wanting to be rich but disrespecting value is like trying to solve the quadratic equation without a,b, or c."

"Act, Assess, and Adjust"

"Entrepreneurship is about problem-solving, creating convenience, satisfying desires, and becoming valuable."
I believe this sentence says it all!
