Move faster forward.

Hey Reader,

The number one differentiation in business is the speed of your movement.

How fast you can act on any idea.

This is challenging, especially when you’re just starting out.

It feels like there is so much you need to learn.

The reality is that business always feels a bit overwhelming because there are constantly new problems to figure out.

You just learn to cope with challenges better.

One big step forward is the process to learn anything quickly so that you can move forward quickly.

There are five steps to any learning cycle to really become a quick learner:

  1. Problem description:​
    The deeper your understanding of the problem, the better you can actually work on the solution.
  2. Set clear objectives:​
    With a deep understanding of the problem, you now need to be clear on what needs to be solved. What are the key objectives?
  3. Keep it short:​
    Now it’s time to do your research. Figure out what you need.​
    Put your plan of action together.
    The most important part:Don’t get stuck in research mode.
  4. Focus on skills:​
    Taking action requires skills.​
    Learning the right skills is going to make you stronger for future problems.​
    So learn the right skills.
  5. Take action:​
    Now put your plan into action and solve your problem.​
    This is the fastest way to learn.

Rinse and repeat.

​

Keep moving forward, brother!

  • In Business the winner is always the tortoise

    Most people start their business as the hare.Sprinting through the tasks. I did that too — thinking the amount of work is what makes the difference. So I tried to become more efficient.

There is no shortcut, because it ends when we’re dead. Success will happen when you do the right things at the right time. That’s the foundation side most…

  • Don’t Follow Fishermen, Follow the Fish

    Hey Reader, In business, we are often tempted to jump on big trends. We often feel like we’re missing out if we don’t. Especially at the beginning, it’s hard. The question is: how do you get started? You should go where the fish are. Don’t blindly follow the advice of the fishermen. The fish is the spot, not the fishermen. The rest will follow long after. A friend and I went fishing together. When we arrived at the lake, it was often that way that others were leaving. So you just lost. Ash…
