“Just In Case”  vs  “Just In Time”

“Just In Case” vs “Just In Time”

Self-education can change your life.

As Jim Rohn said,

"Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune."

I've got a lot of reasons to thank self-education. I'm a completely different person today than I was years ago. I am more confident and have become proficient in many fields especially in the health industry and as a business coach. I was able to touch more lives and help businesses to build a foundation that I know can help their future success.

Thanks to the best teachers in the world - books and experiences.

But it was not that long ago that self-education was cutting my progress.?

?Here's the story...

?I used to read and study every book I could get my hands on. Business, sales, marketing, and entrepreneurship books, I read it all.

Why?

Because I wanted to learn everything.

My quota back then was to finish one book per week because I believe that achieving this will lead me to much progress over my competitors in the industry.?

I call that a "just in case" learning approach. I want to study everything so in case I need it, I know what to do.

Exhausting, confusing, and overwhelming. I felt all of that after a few months of consistently doing that learning process. All I want is to "read, read, and read." No implementation happening.?

Yes, I was reading and learning at the same time. But there is no application. I wasted a huge amount of time reading books but it seems like there is still no improvement. Plus, I was tired.

I learned from what happened. I shifted my approach to "just in time" learning.

It's like this:

When I want to learn a specific topic, I would get three to four books about it and then read all of them. I stay focused and limit my area of learning.?

It worked. More takeaways. More application. More mastery. Plus, I was not tired at all.

Try it yourself. Choose just one topic you want to study and then learn it with a purpose. Take your time. Just choose three to four books about your topic instead of trying to master everything just in case you need them. Focus and learn what you need for now.

Make your priorities. Read. Write notes. Study. And then move to the next level which is application.

To learn and not to do is really not to learn. To know and not to do is really not to know.”

― Stephen R. Covey, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

?I hope that makes sense! ;-)
