What is an information junkie?
An information junkie is someone who buys products or digital downloads and is always consuming but not implementing.
The first step is recognizing you have a problem. Here is my top 10 list. How many times do you say yes that’s me.
10. You can spend 5 hours trolling the internet looking at free content
9.You’re looking for that one thing that will clear everything up for you in your business
8.When you find that free cheatsheet, e-book and audio training, you don’t hesitate …you opt-in
7.You get an adrenalin rush when you see it pop in your in box
6.You have a separate e-mail account to send your free content
5.You subscribe to so much stuff sometimes the sender’s names doesn’t look familiar
4.When you finally look at the content… you wonder why you opted-in in the first place
3.After reading the information… you end up feeling more overwhelmed and confused
2.You still feel stuck so you go back to number 10
And the number one reason why you’re an information junkie…
Drum Roll Please
1.You have over 10,000 messages in your inbox half of which you haven’t read yet.
Here’s how to kick the habit:
take inventory of all the information products and digital downloads you have. You can probably find the answer to what you’re looking for on your hard drive. After taking stock of what you have, make a conscious effort to implement what you’ve learned. Go cold turkey and don’t make another purchase or opt-in to another freebie.
