7 Things That Absolutely Won’t Help You!

The trouble is, not everyone is willing to solve their problems no matter how much they complain about it. Life is strange like that I guess. If you’re serious about changing or fixing a particular thing in your life at this moment, then I believe you are fully aware that help is readily and perhaps, easily available.

However, I have found that there are at least 7 things that absolutely won’t help you no matter how “well-intentioned” you may be. I know because I’ve tested them. What are they? Here’s my list of:

1. Books you don’t read. How easy it is to get a book today and yet many people still don’t read. You and I could find a book on just about any topic or problem today for $0.99! You mean to tell me that you can alleviate a major issue you’re facing at this moment by reading a few pages for less than a dollar? If you have health, family, ministry, business, or financial problems, you’re only a book or two away from discovering the best solution. For the latter, you can even get a FREE book by going to www.monetizeyourskills.com and Learnbuildearn.com to end your money woes sooner rather than later.

2. Exercises you don’t do. In our microwave society, where everything is ‘now’, we simply can’t press a button and pop out exercises. Did you know that exercise is one of the cheapest and fastest way to prevent illness and maintain peak performance? I’m sure you watched the recent Olympics. News flash: Those athletes didn’t get six-pack abs and stellar physiques by popping a pill and relaxing on the couch with a remote. They exercise regularly. We’re not talking about being Arnold Schwarzenegger here. But if you want to get fit, lose weight, and feel great, then I commend to you the secret recipe of exercise. It won’t hurt you and only costs some time and creativity.

3. Courses you never took. Like books above, you can’t possibly be helped by the course you never took. You won’t become a nurse without taking a course. You can’t complete your degree without taking a particular course. But you can turn around your marriage with a course like Save The Marriage. You can lose weight with a course like The 3 Weeks Diet. You can gain financial free with my course Monetize Your Skills. You can improve your spiritual life taking a course on how to pray and experience revival. You can become a better parent with a parenting course. So, instead of tolerating unnecessary stress and problems, why not see if there is a course that can help you with that. Find unlimited courses online at sites like Udemy, Coursera, and Clickbank.

4. Nutritious Foods you won’t eat. This goes with #2. There is a plethora of research confirming what has been known for thousands of years, that nutritious foods like fruits, grains, nuts, and vegetables are integral to health and longevity. But as the saying goes, “what is common is not always common practice.” I’ve often wondered how is it we live in the most affluent society on earth with all the modern and technological advances in healthcare, yet we are still the most diabetic, obese, and heart-diseased plagued society. Hmm. Maybe the ancient sage, the father of medicine, Hippocrates, had it right all along. His words live on today, “let food be thy medicine and medicine thy food.” There you have it.

5. Money you never invested. The wealthy know something that dreamers only wish for. That if you want to create a great future or amass a fortune, you have to invest. If you’re a working adult, chances are, you don’t have the kind of money you thought you would have at this stage in your life. The answer, in part, is due to the fact that you never invested wisely. Money you never invested cannot help you in the future. Dave Ramsey and Austin Pryor’s Sound Mind Investing can help you solve this. My blog post, 7 Important Life Investments also sheds light on other key things you should be investing in.

6. Prayers you refuse to pray. If you truly want to know my #1 secret weapon to solve life’s problem, it is on my knees. I live by the motto that, Prayers Move Heaven. Point #7 is our part to fulfill but when you have God on your side, who or what can be against you? I highly recommend you put the power of prayers in your arsenal of success strategies. Especially when the chips are down, prayers can bring you up! (Tweet that)

7. Advice your refuse to implement or act on. This is perhaps the worst of it all. The most frustrating thing in my line of calling is to dispense valuable advice and see them go unheeded. I can see why professional counselors, financial advisors, consultants, etc. charge for their wisdom. Many don’t value free advice so if they refuse to implement sound advice, then at least let them part with their money. A bit harsh, I know. But what I simply want to say is, “don’t frown upon advice that can change your life and get you out of trouble.” Knowing what to do is only part of the success equation. It is only when you act on what you know and have learned that you will experience the promised result. Therefore, go out and implement these things and watch your problems disappear almost overnight.
