Action Bias V’s Thinking Bias

Over recent years I have been working on building my muscle of action bias….

So, what is Action Bias?…

Let’s look at the opposite to action bias which is thinking bias to get a clearer understanding…

For years I would….

⁃ Think about having my own business…

⁃ Think about exercising and eating well…

⁃ Think about improving my public speaking…

⁃ Think about learning some new skills…

⁃ Think about travelling to another country to live…

⁃ Think about starting a family…

I had Thinking Bias and spent many years stuck in my head thinking about it all day long…

The result?…

More thinking…

In reality, nothing happened until I activated my Action Bias…

Now, I’m getting better at taking action on my thinking, like….

Once an idea pops into my head or some kind of thinking, I take action…

⁃ Want to start a business = make a plan, make a phone call, talk to someone now about my business idea…

⁃ Need to exercise = start walking, visit the gym, call a yoga studio to book in a class…

⁃ Want to improve my public speaking = go visit Toastmasters, book in Now for personal lessons with a coach…

Understand this…

Once I have the idea of something I know I want to do I take a physical action step to make it happen…

Nothing in the material world will happen unless we take a physical action step…

You’ve heard the saying…

“Actions Speak Louder Than Words”

Nothing ever happened in the world without an action been taken…

Here’s the deal…

Become Action Bias, take action, get feedback, learn, take action until you have achieved what you set out to achieve…

Action is part of the creation process in the material world…

Go take some action…NOW…
