Book Summary

If you take action on 10% of what you already know, you could be incredibly successful. To take action, start by writing something on paper. This becomes a little more real, when you verbalize it, the idea starts to grow because you talk it into existence. When you take action, you start to see the biggest change.

You do not need to have a full plan in place before you can take action. All you really have to do is take one step forward. Like walking a spiral staircase, it’s only as you progress further that the steps start to unfold. Sometimes you will not see 10 steps ahead, but you will always see the next one, so take it regardless of how small it may be. With this, progress is made.

To become outrageously successful, you will need to add value and give away your knowledge or skills.

A good way to see success is achieving the goals you have set for yourselves, and then feel pride and satisfaction in your accomplishments. Fame and fortune are a by-product of truly doing what you love.
