Taking action in 2017

According to the 80/20 rule (and many successful online marketers)...

If 100 people desire to start an online business, 80% will take no action, while 20% will do something to move toward that goal.

But we can apply the 80/20 rule again to those 20 who took action.

Of these, 16 (or 80%) will not go all-in with the time, energy or sacrifice needed to create a successful online business.

Only 4 of the original 100 will take the required action (learning, building, testing) to achieve whatever goal they set out to accomplish.

I'd like this year to be a year of action for me.

Anyone else on board?
