The Process - what often keeps concepts from being implemented

Over the past several years, I have read many books and manuals I am personally interested in and the majority of those books provided concepts/tactics without a process for implementing/applying it.
A concept as defined by Merriam-Webster is “an abstract or generic idea.” This means a concept in and of itself does not provide enough information for it to be implement.
Taking it another step forward, some books and manuals have provided practical applications which vocabulary.com defines as “bringing something to bear; using it for a particular purpose.” While practical applications at least defines the purpose for the concept it still does not (by definition) provide steps (a process) for implementing the concept or idea. Because a process as defined by Merriam-Webster is “series of actions or operations conducting to an end.”
For this reason, I intend to highlight concepts from books I have read in the past and those I am currently reading to help others have a process for how to implement important concepts that can help solve some of our problems or help lead us to success.
