Something very interesting happened to me the other day. No, I am not going to mention any names because that’s just tacky. However, I discovered something that really surprised me. And that’s when I realized that even successful people don’t know it all. There is a point to this and I’m going to make it at the end of this article, but I want you to read the story first.
I was asked to review a product the other day. It was one made by a very successful marketer. I was actually honored to be asked. Anyway, I went through the videos and the book and when I was done with everything, while the content was excellent, I realized that there was stuff missing. How did I know this? Because I was very familiar with the subject. I couldn’t imagine how this person could have left these things out.
Well, I contacted him, told him what I thought about the material that I did read and then asked him why he had not put certain things into the book and videos. His answer surprised me. He said it was because he wasn’t really that familiar with those areas and rather than lecture on something he didn’t know a lot about, he just left them out.
Now, having said this, the areas he did leave out were not critical to the product being useful. And therein lies my point. See, you don’t really have to know everything about a subject to know it well enough to make it work for you. I certainly don’t know everything about a lot of subjects, but I know enough about them to be able to use them efficiently. That is the key…knowing just enough to make it work.
Point is, you don’t have to be an expert at anything. You just have to know your material well enough to be able to use it and profit from it. If you can do that, there is no reason why you can’t make a decent living online.
Even if you don’t know it all.

Nobody knows everything. That’s why successful people have mentors. That’s why people, like Henry Ford, surronded himself with a team of experts.
You can always find out more, learn more, do more and become better at what you do by learning. Part of that involves gaining knowledge from someone else who knows. That is why people pay for information, and that is why information has value. Yes Folusho, many successful people lead good teams. You are absolutely right.
