Back in 2008, Marketing expert Ed Rivis had a good post about self-improvement materials. He was looking at internet marketing, but this applies to programs in other fields - including investing, sales, and self-help / motivation.
He cautions against investing in more ebooks, courses, and seminars (including his own) until you have fully studied and implemented everything you can out of your existing materials.
This is very good advice. Most people, including me (and, according to Ed, himself), have been guilty of buying an Ebook and course, but then failing to follow through. We have a lot of info on our hard drives and shelves, but have not really taken advantage of it.
It feels comfortable and safe to go from course to course. They entertain us and make us feel as if we are progressing. However, watching a succession of DVDs doesn't make you an expert house flipper. To do that, you need to stop watching, get out of your comfort zone, and actually flip a house.
