John Maxwell: 我认为，要真正实现个人成长和成功，关键在于从一个有良好意图的人转变为一个采取实际行动的人。这意味着我们要有意识地选择那些有价值的事情，并投入时间和精力去完成它们。我经常反思，如何确保我的行动能够最大化那些我已经知道但尚未做的事情。我发现，早起、迅速确定优先事项、消除干扰、设定时间表、做出实际行动、掌控日程安排以及根据行动而非意图来评估我的一天，这些都是非常有效的方法。最重要的是，我们要记住，我们和我们想成为的人之间的主要区别在于我们所做的事情。行动弥合了现状与目标之间的差距，因此，我们必须确保我们的行动是有回报的，并且真正有价值。 Mark Cole: 我深信，行动是创造改变的关键。正如西蒙·斯涅克所说，言语可以激励，但只有行动才能创造改变。因此，我总是鼓励我们的播客听众不仅要学习和享受内容，更要采取实际行动。我经常反思，如何确保我们的播客能够产生实际影响，而不仅仅是提供一些信息。我希望我们的听众能够投资自己，并采取行动来实现他们的目标。我也意识到，仅仅拥有资源是不够的，只有应用这些资源才能成功。因此，我总是鼓励大家找到一些有价值的东西，设定一个时间框架，并设定一个期望的结果，然后立即开始行动。 Chris Robinson: 我非常认同采取行动的重要性。我喜欢采取行动，并有意识地做有价值的事情。我认为，总是准备好去准备会阻碍行动，因此，我们应该立即开始行动。我也认为，学习一点，然后做一点，可以帮助人们从意图转化为行动。我经常在自己的生活中实践这一点，设定30天或21天的目标，以培养习惯或完成某件事。例如，我每天做一百个俯卧撑和一百个深蹲，以改善我的健康。我也认为，时间表对于培养习惯和做有价值的事情至关重要。时间表可以帮助我们集中精力，并朝着目标前进。
