Happy Free Thoughts Thursday, people.

Thanks for your patience as I took a short break from YouTube and this newsletter—there's been a lot going on behind the scenes.

For example, I've been in the process of designing a sleep patch that delivers a sustained release of melatonin, magnesium, L-Theanine and other sleep-supporting supplements into your bloodstream throughout the night.

I'm going to launch the product on Amazon in February 2023.

If you're interested in learning more you can join our Facebook Group where you'll have a chance to win a free box of 42 patches for yourself.

As always, I appreciate your support!

Let's get into it.

1 Thought From Me:

One of the hardest things to accept when you're thinking about starting something new is that you're not going to know everything before you begin.

It's so hard to accept this that a lot of people never do.

Instead, they simultaneously convince themselves and make the excuse that if they just read one more book or listen to one more podcast or have one more conversation then they'll know enough to start.

But that's just simply not the case.

You can spend your entire life learning how to run a business or how to have a successful marriage or how to get a six pack, but if you don't go out and sell something, ask someone on a date or get your ass to the gym then all of that learning will be for nothing.

Quick question for you:

What do you think is the difference between knowledge and wisdom?

I think it's experience.

And that distinction is the reason why it's impossible to know everything before you start.

You might read every book about a particular subject and become extremely knowledgeable, but all of that knowledge is completely useless unless you're able to apply it in the real world—which is something you can only learn by doing, by gaining real experience and therefore acquiring wisdom.

There's a time and a place for books and podcasts and conversations as long as you don't let them replace actually doing the thing you know you should do.

The truth is you'll never be "ready" to start something new.

But at some point you have to stop learning and ask yourself:

Do I actually need to read another book or am I just afraid of getting started?

Live your life to the fullest,

Chris
