Always Write a Report About What You Learned

Here is my tip for attending physical seminars: Take whatever notes you write down and turn it into a PDF report, that you never show anyone else. Not only does it train you to keep pumping out 5 to 10 page reports, the information becomes a part of you because you retyped it and revised it.
If I had a clone who was unable to attend the seminar, I could just hand this document over to him and he would have all the info without having to attend.
I am a sparse note-taker. If you are a smart enough businessperson you know that 99 percent of the content does not apply to your business, but I still wrote about 10 pages of notes.
I routinely walk out of many presentations to avoid information overload. There is only so much information you can absorb over a weekend, and with seminars, I avoid the newbie-oriented information.
Once I have those raw notes transformed into a shippable, nice looking PDF report, complete with a cover page, I rip the pages out of my notebook and shred them.
To be honest, even though my report is the stripped-down version of my original notes, I am going to ignore about half of the tips on there because I know I just won' t have time for them.
A good skill is weeding out the knowledge you do not need. Knowing what NOT to change with your business is even more important than knowing what to change in your business.
