I love to read. I spend a lot of time shopping at Barnes and Noble for the next best find. I tend to always read fun books about changing your life. Are you surprised? I am a life coach.

What I realize is that sometimes people think a book will change their life. They feel if they read it, highlight in it, make notes, re-read it, insist friends read it so they can talk about it and then re-read it again that their life will just change.

I am sorry to say, this is not how it happens. Reading books gives us the information but DOING the information we learned is what changes our lives. Like they say, “Knowing is half the battle…” This is the truth. Applying it to our lives through practice and follow through is the most important part.

It would be like signing up for the gym and thinking you now will have a summer built body. Having the gym membership is half the battle, the hard part is actually going, building a routine and putting the work into ourselves.

So keep on reading with me but remember to put some action into it.
