Learning can be easy a lot of the time.
Reading helpful content is harmless to you. No one’s died from the spike in dopamine from a business seminar. And listening to podcasts as you lay down in your bed, what’s safer than that?
The truth about learning, though, is to be the best at your practice, to be an artist, you need a balance of safe learning and hard learning (otherwise referred to as learning the hard way).
It’s okay to get hurt. To feel bad when you fail. To get embarrassed.
Rocky could train with just a rope and a bag for a fight, but what sets him apart and puts him ahead of the competition is that he has taken hits in the ring, in home, and on the street.
The truth about learning is you become successful by doing it the easy way and the hard way.
The trouble comes when you try to replace the hard way for an easy one. You shortchange yourself when you do this.
Stay Positive & Maybe Being Hard On Yourself Is A Critical Part Of Learning, Maybe
