019 - Keep Learning

Welcome to 1 Minute Tips! In yesterday’s episode I mentioned that I would risk sounding like your grandma. Today, let me go ahead and risk sounding like your parents by saying that you should always be learning something. Always! Even if you feel like you’re on the top of your game, go and find something new to learn, either in your area of expertise or a totally unrelated area. We are blessed to be living in a time with abundance of information. In a not so distance past, we had to go after information. And in some cases it was really hard and expensive. Today, all the information you need is literally a few mouse clicks away. There’s someone out there that have faced the exact problems you’re facing right now. All you have to do is search. Be careful with the traps, the internet is full of black holes. You should keep a tight “information diet”. I will do an episode about this in the future. For now, focus on whatever new skill or knowledge you’re seeking. Dedicate a couple of hours per day if you can. Learning has never been this easy before. So keep learning! I’m Rod Gomes and I’ll come back with another 1 minute tip soon. Take care, stay active, stay positive!
