Self-Leadership

Mike Foster:

I consider knowledge to be overvalued. Too many of us suffer from “infobesity.” Too much information, not enough action. But knowledge combined with action is priceless.

Here’s the reality: if nothing changed in your actions, nothing changes. You’ll know more, but you won’t become more.

Fears stoke us to get closer to information/knowledge. It makes us feel secure, like we’re not missing out. But the closer we get, the more likely we are to miss the forest for the trees. That’s where anxiety thrives.

And it’s why close proximity to information may not be the future.
