If you're looking to improve your life, the first thing I would tell you to start doing is invest in your knowledge. However you may go about it, an investment in your knowledge will always pay off.
Investing in your knowledge can allow you to do extraordinary things:
- You can make better decisions by having more information
- You can see what others don't by having more information
- You can monetize your knowledge - start a blog, a youtube channel, or even better: start posting on a Steem platform like Steemit or D.tube!
- Opportunities will seem plentiful because you have the knowledge to identify what may work and what may not work and why
5 Ways I invest in my Knowledge
- I read books daily - I typically read 2 books at the same time to keep things interesting, but I always make sure to finish at least 1 book a week
- I read articles and interesting posts - A lot of your fellow Steemians have a lot of great information to share - they've invested in their knowledge, and now they're sharing it with you, take advantage of it!
- I listen to podcasts - podcasts are a great way to learn on the go and also to get out of your normal spheres of thinking - I love finding interviews of people in crazy fields. The JRE show (Joe Rogan Podcast) is my go-to.
- I listen to audiobooks - I don't consider audiobooks as a replacement to reading, but rather a supplement to reading. Hearing information is a different way of processing it in the mind and can provide insights that reading might not.
- I'm a practitioner - I don't just read about things, I like to go out and attempt them for myself. I work on my businesses, I experiment with different tactics and strategies, and I overall just like to experience as many things as I can first-hand. Experience is one of the best teachers.
