Turning Ideas Into Reality

I have always been a big reader. I have collected a million ideas over the years that haven't quite made it into my daily routine. The same thing has happened as I began studying Internet marketing and the idea I've had for years of writing. I have a hard drive full of stuff that is collecting virtual dust and have spent more time on support forums than I care to contemplate.

I am an information junkie and because of that, it sometimes keeps me standing still. Action on my part can be slow and occasionally nonexistent. I guess eating for 24 hours straight and never being able feel full is about the same as taking in all that information and not doing anything with it. It almost feels as painful as what I imagine the marathon eating session would be!

I had the same situation while researching an paper in college. I would just gather everything I could get my hands on and then sometimes just look at it all wondering where to start. I am one of those people who has a bad habit of needing to absolutely understand what I am doing before I put a plan into action. What I forget is that the best type of learning is done by trial and error and I forget that I personally learn best by doing!

If you have trouble making decisions, this can also be a factor when you're trying to put a focus on all the information you have gathered. How many times have you stood in the store staring at all the different brands of allergy medicine? You have your fast acting or your long lasting variety. As I've heard one comedian joke, "Do I want to feel better now or later?" This is taking indecision to an art form.

At some point, a person just needs to focus and make a decision. In the context of Internet marketing, this can mean you need to make a plan to focus on article marketing, press releases, Adsense or search engine optimization. That doesn't mean that it is a final decision, but having a dozen things going at one time or trying to have your finger in every pie is not helpful in maintaining focus. Taking ideas from possibility to reality requires focus, making a plan and taking action, even if it's wrong the first time or the fifth time. The difference between a dream and reality is a plan and a timeline to accomplish the plan. Do you think it's time to get busy?!
