Don't Be A Seminar Junkie

There are a lot of good books, DVDs, courses, and seminars on topics such as internet marketing, investing, real estate, etc.

A good education is invaluable for those of us who want to succeed in life, and become financially independent with multiple passive streams of income.

The pitfall, however, is when the courses and seminars become an end in themselves.

It is very easy to become a "seminar junkie", where it becomes a form of entertainment to take classes and seminars, and you feel like you are making progress without the temporary discomfort of having to take concrete actions.

But the successful people are those who focus on one thing at a time and take action.

Even the best self-help and get-rich courses are not turnkey businesses.

Like any other profession, reading and studying is only the first step. You need to then apply what you have learned, grow out of your comfort zone by putting yourself in uncomfortable positions, build experience, and mold the material into a system that works for you.
