We can only learn so much through instruction, and often what we do learn through instruction is NOT the most important part.
Our capacity to remember and gain deep knowledge through instruction is actually quite limited.
You know this yourself if you have been through any day-long, weekend-long or week-long (in which case I feel VERY sorry for you).
You may THINK you are learning a lot but the truth is that you walk away with 2-3 major things you learned if you are lucky which you probably could have gotten in about 1-hour of instruction.
I’ve experienced this coaching sports for years (hockey, baseball, soccer…)
Kids who learn and then apply that to drills and game situations learn 10X faster than kids who simply learn, learn, learn through instruction and do not apply what they learn.
The same thing goes for your effectiveness in business.
A Far More Effective Way To Get Ahead
Let’s face it, to get ahead and grow our businesses we need to move faster, learn more, be able to pivot more quickly and get to that place where we are seeing massive results faster – learning simply through instruction is not enough.
For instance, we can teach a Fast-Track System For Getting Your Online Business Producing Massive Profits in a purely instructional format (either seminar or the video series on its own) OR we can teach it in very strategic, bit-sized pieces followed by ACTION items – can you guess which one has worked better for our leaders?
You got it…those who tap into bit-sized instruction and then apply that 1-2 techniques to starting and growing their business end up learning 10X more because…
- They actually internalize DOING the task versus just learning ABOUT it – they now have experience they can use to speed up future actions and share with othersÂ
- They get instant feedback – if something doesn’t work then they learn why. Â If it does work, then they have quickly isolated a winning technique that works for their business in their market – something that 95%+ of their competitors have not yet figured out
- They gain confidence and assurance that they are taking steps toward their desired outcome – even when they hit setbacks they know they are taking steps in the right direction versus just “learning” without doing
- They become viewed by others as that 1% who take massive action which separates you from the crowd
- Ultimately you accelerate your knowledge and results well ahead of those who are stuck in “instruction-only” Â learning mode
Become An Active Learner
Start today by changing your beliefs around what learning really is.
Learning must be the combined process of instruction and action…without doing, testing and obtaining direct feedback you have not learned anything of value.
Commit to changing yourself into an active learner and watch your results explode!
