Shrinking the Curve... a Journey Towards Knowledge

.

Whats Happenin Forum...

People are at many different stages in their journey as an entrepreneur. Some are just getting
started, some are on their way and gaining momentum, others are well on their way and creating
growth and leverage.

Something we hear about all the time is "the learning curve."
This can seem ominous and never ending to some. I know for me, when I first heard the phrase,
it was this concept that was out there, lingering in my mind, but didn't have any actual positive
impact on my education because it was just this vague expression.

Now, it almost sounds cliché.

A never ending journey can be frustrating. Without mile markers on the road or signs on the path,
it's easy to feel exhausted and begin to doubt the point of the journey and whether we'll ever "get
there."

So what is the curve?
Is it a measure of time?
Is it a measure of experience?
Is it a measure of knowledge?
How do we gauge where we are on the curve?
How do we know when we've arrived on "the other side?"

I think a large part of the curve and closing the gap from one side to the other is the modality of
learning itself. We all learn in different ways. But there are commonalities that can be identified
to help anyone reach the point where the learning process makes sense, we can feel accomplished in
our new knowledge and more importantly, put that information to use as quickly as possible.

The feeling of accomplishment and reaching a milestone is crucial in maintaining momentum.
In my experience, forward movement is fueled by positive input more than moving away from a negative.

If we can quicken that experience for people I think it would be a powerful, positive step for the
entrepreneurial community as a whole.

So Here's A Question For You...

- Think about all the things you do when you study, do research or want to learn something new.
- Think of the seminars, webinars, conferences and events you've attended.
- Think of the books, videos, DVDs, CDs, eCourses and info products you've consumed.

What Is The Most Efficient Form Of Learning For You?
Of all these modalities, what has had the greatest impact and helped you make the most significant progress?

PS:
Mindset and deciding to take action is a major element in this process.
Making the decision to acquire knowledge and apply it is paramount.
