Can a Book Really Change Your Life?
"Ever read a book that changed your life? How often have you heard someone say that a book changed their life?
Besides Oprah. Or all the reviews at Amazon for self-help books.
I'm talking about your friends, family, colleagues, or customers.
How about you -- has a book ever changed your life?
I'm going to say " a book itself can't change my life".
I've known lots of people who rush out to buy the latest "30 Days to change your life" book, read it in a few days, and then are pissed off that their life hasn't changed.
30 days later, they are still waiting for a new life -- and are even more frustrated.
"What a waste of money," they say.
The problem is that no matter how powerful the ideas and concepts contained within a book (or audio program, or video series, etc.), it's worthless if you don't put them into practice.
That requires action on your part.
Reading a book, and expecting some life altering thing to magically happen is like waiting for a match to light a fire on its own.
A fire requires a catalyst and a trigger. Until then, it's just potential.
It's the same with life changing events.
So a book, no matter how powerful it's message, can't change your life.
Only you can do that.
