These aren’t the 3 words you think they are.
While “I love you” is powerful, and to an extent, might be seen as dangerous, they are NOT the 3 most dangerous words in the world.
The 3 words have to deal with your life.
If you are not where you want to be in life and have tried to change but haven’t changed, you might have uttered these words.
According to T. Harv Eker, the answer is “I know that.”
Why These Words Are So Dangerous
Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker talks specifically about 17 “Wealth Files” that show the difference between rich people and poor people.
He admits that these designations are overly simplistic and makes a point to say that people in both extremes are worthy of respect.
In Wealth File #17, Eker states, “Rich people constantly learn and grow. Poor people think they already know.”
We need to move from being a “no-it-all” to a “learn-it-all.”
If you live it, you know it. Otherwise, you heard about it, you read about it, or you talk about it, but you don’t know it.

Knowing Isn’t Enough
I have read dozens of books on marketing, self-employment, web design, and email marketing.
I thought I knew them. And I did; in my head.
But I had not turn them into actions and results.
In Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, Eker talks about how our Thinking leads to our Feeling which leads to your Actions. Our Actions in turn,lead to our Results.
When we say “I know that,” we are still inside our heads and have not brought that knowledge out into the world.
Knowledge that stays in our “inner world,” as Eker calls it, can not influence our lives or the lives of those in the “outer world” until we take action.
Putting Knowledge To Work
Until our Thinkging generates a Feeling we won’t act.
Think back to your school days and how you “learned” a bunch of facts and figures.
Rarely did that lead you to take any action.
The fear of not making good grades led many of us to take the action of studying to pass the exam.
Learning how the Nazi killed millions of Jews, Gypsies, Jehovah’s Witnesses, homosexuals, blacks, those with physically and mentally disabilities, political opponents (ie. Communists and Social Democrats), dissenting clergy, resistance fighters, prisoners of war, Slavic peoples, and others.
Until that knowledge moves us we will not act to make sure that hatred is pushed back, in all of its forms.
Knowing that self-employment is NO risker than a corporate job does not move us to action until we feel what it would be like to have time, financial, and moral freedom in our work.
When we replace the feeling of fear of self-employment with the feeling of freedom, we can start taking action.
Feelings Motivate Us
FOMO. The “Fear of Missing Out” is “social anxiety stemming from the belief that others might be having fun while the person experiencing the anxiety is not present. The phenomenon was first identified in 1996 by marketing strategist Dr. Dan HermanSource.”
Fear is a powerful feeling. Fear of missing out is even more powerful.
When we realize that we only live once and that human life is fairly brief (most less than 100 years), we fear missing out on many of life’s precious moments.
Self-employment allows you to create your life and build your work around it.
Working a job, your work dictates your life.
Why would you allow that?
If you were to die, your job would most likely be posted before your obituary was.
Build your work around your life and NOT your life around your work.
Taking Action
The simplest action to take is to calculate what you need to live your ideal life.
