I recently reorganized my home office and found an old copy of this sales literature classic. It made me remember one of my favorite quotes from Covey: "your current knowledge has a half life of 2 years." If you're not continuing to learn, you're staying in the same place. In a recent podcast (can't remember the name) they mentioned three relatively easy ways to ensure you are continuing to learn and therefore, continuing to move forward: 1. Read material relevant to your field of work for 30 minutes every day 2. Take courses and seminars every chance you can 3. Listen to industry relevant podcasts in your car All of these seem rather simple and achievable, so I thought I'd share them here to my greater professional community. Let's keep moving forward!
Love this Wedum!! “If you’re not continuing to learn you’re staying in the same place,” so true. Thanks for sharing!
There is an amazing book by Dr Steven Covey’s son, called the Speed of Trust.. you should read that as well.
Great advice Kristine Wedum - be a continuous student and as Ted Lasso said “Be curious, not judgemental”
Nothing changes if nothing changes.
Great advice!
