Learning is not about a-ha moments.
If you listen to one of my 60 second On Success audio clips, my In Conversation With audio program or another trainer or speaker with some expectation of mind-blowing awareness, you are going to be disappointed more often than not!
Learning something new is a process, one that you have been using since you were born.
Learning occurs bit by bit, piece by piece in an incremental fashion. You did not leap up off your stomach and start walking one day – you got up, fell down, learned something, got up, fell down, learned some more.
I use the analogy of a penny rolling across a ledge. One day, you read an article on an interesting subject and the penny rolls a little. Then, you have a conversation with someone else and the penny rolls some more. You hear one of my programs and the penny moves along again. As you’re driving in your car, you ponder the subject and roll roll roll.
Then, one day, something happens and the penny drops!
You consider that to be some momentous occasion, when in fact, everything leading to that moment has contributed to that moment.
Action – Take steps every day to learn. Read a chapter. Listen to 15 minutes of an audio program. Read an article. And then take an action of some sort.
And so all of this without expectation of something miraculous and instantaneous occurring.
