It doesn't matter if you believe you have heard 100 powerful insights because we already know that too many insights leads to overload and inaction. Therefore, no more than three powerful insights.
For each insight, document the potential impact you could have if you put this insight to action. Finally, document the small action you will take immediately to put this insight to action. The key is to keep the action small.
I would love to hear your feedback after you put this to work for a bit.
