One of the great things about living in today’s world of abundance and opportunity is that almost anything you may want to do has already been done by someone else. Even if you want to do what nobody has ever done before, most likely, at least a portion of that – HAS already been done by someone else. It doesn’t matter whether it’s losing weight, running a marathon, starting and building a thriving business, becoming financially independent, triumphing over cancer, or writing and marketing a best-selling book – someone has already done it and left clues in the form of books, blogs, manuals, audio or video programs, university classes, e-Learning courses, seminars, and workshops.

Who’s already done what you want to do?
If you want to become financially independent for instance, there are literally hundreds of books, ranging from The Automatic Millionaire to Start Late, Finish Rich, and Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, and workshops ranging from T. Harv Eker’s “Millionaire Mind” to Marshall Thurber and D.C. Cordova’s “Money and You”.
If you want to have a better relationship with your spouse, you can read John Gray’s Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus, study Tony Robbins’ and Cloe Madanes “The Ultimate Relationship” program, or take Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks’ online course “The Conscious Relationship”. Many of these are available through our ‘Reading List’ or ‘Resources’ page above.
Why don’t people seek out clues?
- It never occurs to us. We don’t see others using these resources, so we don’t do it either.
- It’s inconvenient. We’d have to go to the bookstore, or go to our ‘Reading List’ tab above. We’d have to take time away from TV, family, or friends.
- Asking others for advice or information pits us against our fear of rejection.
- Connecting the dots in a new way would require us to change; and change, even when it’s in our best interest – is uncomfortable.
- Change is hard work, and frankly, most people don’t want to work that hard. (The strange thing is that struggling in your current path could actually be even harder).
Seek Out Clues
- Seek out a teacher, coach, mentor or any of the other resources mentioned above.
- Seek out someone who has already done what you want to do and ask them if you can interview him or her for a half hour on how you should best proceed.
- Ask someone if you can shadow them for a day and watch them work. Offer to volunteer, be an assistant, or intern for someone you think you can learn from.
