Last week I discussed a YouTube video called “The Tool Box Fallacy” (a video by Passion of the Nerd on YouTube) and I challenged you guys to state a life goal that you have been holding back on due to this fallacy.  So far six audience members have written in and told me the goal they had and the metaphorical needed tool box that was holding them back and stated their intention to just get it done.
Well 6 people willing to step up is enough for me so today we are digging into this at a deeper level. The basics of the Tool Box Fallacy is that people use things they claim they need but don’t have to avoid getting things done.  If I had a gym membership I could get in shape, etc.
This is likely the number one excuse type in modern America today, that people use to avoid changing their lives and accomplishing great things.
