How many articles have you read? How many other pieces of information did you consume? And how much of it was actually what you needed? Did you get side-tracked? Went down an endless rabbit hole? What else could you have done in that time that would actually have gotten you results?Practice more? Probably. Ask people who've been in your exact situation before? Pretty sure you know someone. Approach education in a more systematic way? Definitely, although you might not know how exactly (yet).Then, when you've stumbled across something truly useful, how do you make sure you won't forget and remember it when you need it? And how can you be sure this is the only way, or the right way to do it? Is it really the right thing to do in your specific situation? For your specific song? Is there an easier way or a better way to achieve what you want to achieve?Are you still open for other ideas or are you following blindly because you think that's the way and you're ignoring the context?What if the person you're following doesn't really have a clue or is giving you bad advice?And finally, what do you actually apply? And when? Which technique/strategy in which situation? How much of it will never be implemented at all, because you only have so much time and you can't do all the things?We could go on and on. But enough with the questions for now. Let's give you some answers, show you how we do it and hopefully inspire you to find a good balance between consuming just what you need and taking massive action. If you've paid attention, you'll realize that our approach is probably not the only one. But it definitely works for us and maybe it helps you, too.Here's how to make the most of what you're learning.For full show notes go to: theselfrecordingband.com/94If you have any questions, feedback, topic ideas or want to suggest a guest, email us at: [email protected] us Fan MailIf you have any questions, feedback, topic ideas or want to suggest a guest, email us at: [email protected]
