Earlier I mentioned that I'd be doing a series of blog posts covering some of the most common reasons people have for not starting their online business.  For some reason, #12 is on my mind today, so let's do it "Late Show" style, in reverse order (although there's no real order to this list).

Excuse #12: I need to learn a little bit more before I get started

No, you really don't need to learn "a little bit more".  Now I'm about to tell you something that  you already know is true, but let me refresh your memory anyway - you're NEVER going to know it ALL.  No one does. 

Here's a good example.  One of the best thoughts related to this was something I read on Willie Crawford's blog in a post where he talked about how he built a list of over 100,000 people.  One of the things he said he did was write information-packed articles (Nothing new there, right?  But are you doing it?  I digress…). 

Notice that he emphasized the fact that they're "information packed", without holding back.  Why?  According to him:

The reason is that knowledge grows exponentially, and since I'm constantly learning new things, I can never teach you everything that I know.

The big takeaway is that if someone with 10+ YEARS of experience online is STILL learning stuff, then if you wait until you know everything, you'll NEVER get started. 

Just get the basics and get to work.
