Stop Taking Notes and Start Taking Action | Tea & Coffee Hub Ep. 8

The difference between learning and implementing
Why taking notes without action is wasted energy
The habits that separate doers from dreamers
How to turn new information into results
Why accountability and follow-through matter more than any course or event
Karen and Steve share personal stories of wasted investments, forgotten workbooks, and how they learned to convert knowledge into real progress.
