This document discusses how depriving yourself from growing by waiting to take action until you feel you have enough knowledge is preventing you from living in the present. It argues that there is always room for more learning and growth. Taking action now with the knowledge you have, even if imperfect, allows you to learn from experience. The document provides steps for identifying reasons for inaction and focusing on positive outcomes of taking action to start growing now.

1. HAPPINESS:
DO NOT DEPRIVE
YOURSELF FROM
GROWING
Mykim Tran

2. INTRODUCTION
 Have you ever stop yourself from taking action
because you believe that you do not have enough
knowledge?
 Have you ever think to yourself that you will
wait until you have learn enough or finish
learning before you take action?

3. YOU ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH
KNOWLEDGE
• If you wait until you feel that you have enough
knowledge to take action, then you will wait
forever
• It does not matter how much knowledge you have
at the moment, you will always have the fear
that you will not have enough knowledge
• In life, new things and ideas are discovered and
developed every second
• There will always be something better in the
future that will prevent you to believe that you
will not have enough knowledge

4. KEEP ON LEARNING TO KEEP ON
GROWING
• As a human being, in order to truly live and keep
your happiness strong, you have to keep on
growing through learning, exploring, and
applying new things
• For example, one of the main reasons why many
people like to travel to different countries is to
learn and explore new things
• Every time you learn and apply something new,
your happiness increases

5. DO NOT DEPRIVE YOURSELF FROM
GROWING
• When you are not applying to what you know in
the present moment, then you are depriving
yourself from growing
• The longer you wait to take action, the more
suffering you will encounter
• For example, in exercise, the only time when you
will become stronger is when you do something
different
• It does not matter how much you apply the same
exercise over and over again, you will never
become stronger

6. ARE YOU TRULY LIVING?
• When you wait to apply your knowledge, then you are
living in the future, which means you are not actually
living at all
• Let’s take the invention of the laptop for example
• You know that new and better laptop will be invented
in the future
• However, do you stop yourself from purchasing what
the market is selling at the moment, no right?
• If you do, then you would not have any laptop to use
• It just does not make any sense for you to deprive
yourself from using the current laptop in order to live
your life

7. LIVE IN THE PRESENT MOMENT
• If you decide to wait until the better version of
the laptop to be invented in order to purchase
and use it, then you are putting your life on hold,
which means you are living in the future
• In order for you to grow and live successful, you
have to use what you already know at the
moment
• When new and better knowledge manifest in the
future, then you can use it in the future
• Otherwise, live in the present moment

8. GROWING IS ABOUT LEARNING AND
APPLYING NEW THINGS
• Even though new and better knowledge will
always be manifesting in the future, you have
enough knowledge to live your life successfully in
the present moment
• It is not about the end result, but having the
ability to learn and explore things is the
important aspect of life
• Even though you might not get where you
wanted when you take action, the fact that you
explored something new will fulfill your human
need to grow

9. ACTION STEPS
• 1. Make a list of everything that you would want
to do, learn, and explore
• 2. For each thing, write down every reason why
you do not want to take action. What are you
afraid of that will happen?

10. ACTION STEPS
• 3. For each thing, write down all the positive
outcomes if you were able to take action. What
would your life be different in a positive way?
And then stay focus only on them
• 4. For each thing, write down all the steps you
would need to do to accomplish it. If you do not
know the steps, then you can do some research to
discover it. It does not matter what you want to
accomplish, there are thousands of people who
already accomplished what you want that have
left clues everywhere to help you accomplish
what you want.
