Let me know how this helped you
What if all the wisdom you've been collecting is actually holding you back? Today on the Annoyingly Optimistic Show, I share a voicemail I left for my friend Tim, who's been stuck in the vicious cycle of reading and planning without ever taking action. Armed with insights from the likes of Austin Kleon, I tackle the common pitfall of "knowledge kleptomania," where we hoard ideas and strategies without ever implementing them. This episode is a call to action for anyone who's ever felt paralyzed by endless preparation—it’s time to stop just reading about solutions and start living them!
Join me as I recount my heartfelt message to Tim, urging him to put down the books and start making real, tangible changes in his business. I share personal anecdotes, practical tips, and motivational quotes to inspire you to break free from the inertia of inaction. Whether you're an entrepreneur facing similar challenges or simply someone who feels stuck, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you transform inspiration into results. Get ready for a hefty dose of enthusiasm and a roadmap to move from endless planning to actual doing.

The majority of 'business advice' out there isn't aimed at self-employed or micro businesses, following it leaves you frustrated and chasing quick fixes. I specialise in tools, systems, techniques, inspiration and help specifically designed for YOU, the person who has to do it all, who doesn't have a team of people, unlimited resources or the time to spend months learning complicated techniques.
