Default OK, it's time we scientifically figured this out!

Hi,

Basically, Don does this:

* Sees an opportunity
* Does some stuff
* Receives money

Anyone reading this message can do two out of the three steps, I mean anyone can see an opportunity and can enjoy receiving money.

It's that other step, doing some stuff, that seems to be almost impossible for many people, including myself.

Example of doing some stuff: Yesterday I needed a Sunday newspaper, so I got dressed, left the house, got in my truck, drove to the Wag A Bag, gave the clerk $1.50, left the Wag A Bag, drove home, went back inside. The steps were done smoothly and in the proper order. There was no emotionalism. I did the steps and got the paper.

Here's what we need to do:

We need to figure out how to make it possible to do the steps Don does in one of his project and have the *experience* be the same as doing the steps to buy a newspaper.

Seems like you'd need to have a certainty at the start that you'd succeed if you did the steps.

Seems like you'd need all the tools (my newspaper buying tools were clothes, house keys, truck keys, a truck, gasoline, knowledge of where to buy the paper, $1.50).

Seems like you'd need the ability to smoothly do the steps in order without emotionalism.

Seems like you'd need the ability to get started and then move from one step to the next.

What do you think? Thanks in advance for any replies....

Best,

- Boyd
