9 Suggestions on How to Get the Most Out of Wisdom Post

The Wisdom Post is a website specifically created to inspire you to unleash your greatness and all the articles written here are aimed to help you achieve your goals and realize your dreams.

Here are 9 suggestions on how you can get the most out of Wisdom Post.

1. Possess a Deep and Driving Desire to Learn

No matter what books or blogs you read, if you want to get the most out of them, there is one indispensable requirement you must possess. Without this fundamental requirement, you will never learn from anything you have read. And this requirement is that you must possess a deep and driving desire to learn.

You must understand that without the drive to learn, no matter what you read or what event you experienced, you will never learn a single thing from them. Famous motivational speaker Zig Ziglar said it well, he said, “If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you.”

When you possess an intense passion to learn, nothing can stop you. You can squeeze the most out of this website and every article will be meaningful to you.

So how can you develop such a strong desire to learn? Well, you must constantly remind yourself that it is important to learn. You must see yourself how learning and mastery can make you happier, richer, healthier, more successful and fulfilling. When you commit to learning and grow your desire to improve yourself at every moment, your life will change, and this is when you can get the most out of Wisdom Post.

2. Read Through More Than Once

We all have a limited time in this world. Regardless of who you are, whether you are a janitor or a doctor, we all have only 24 hours a day. And because your time is limited, you may have the urge to scan through the article quickly by reading only the subheadings. Unless you are reading for entertainment, do not do that.

If you are serious about getting the most out of Wisdom Post, the best way to go about it is to read through the article rapidly once. And if the information or ideas in the content catch your attention, read through for the second round. This time, take your time to read the article. There is no saying that you can only read the article once. In fact, if the articles here inspired you, you can read it more than once and even share it with your friends through social media.

3. Take Time to Stop and Reflect

When you read through the articles here, choose to take your time and try to relate what you have read with your life. Sometimes, the best articles and ideas are those that can connect with your personal life the most. So go through the articles and take the time to stop when you need to. Stop and ponder how the ideas can apply to your life and how you can relate to them.

Most people read books or articles for the sake of reading. When they start reading, they have only one aim in their head, which is to finish the articles or the chapter of the book. Do not let this happen to you. You are not reading for the sake of reading. So take your time to stop and to ponder.

This is also one of the reasons you should read something more than once. This is because at different points in your life, you will go through different experiences and events, thus, what you read today may not be interesting to you because you cannot relate it to your life. However, when the time is right and you reread the book or the article, you find that there is something new to learn and wonder why you did not learn that in your first reading.

This is why you need to possess a strong desire to learn. Rather than just reading the texts, go through the content and reflect on your life.

4. Taking Notes

It is highly suggested you get a journal to record down every experience or lesson you have learned from everything that you have read, not just from Wisdom Post. Therefore, read with a pencil or a pen. Whenever you come across an idea that interests you, write it down.

Experts have discovered that when you write down something, you tend to remember it better. You may forget what you have read, but when you write it down, you “inked” it into your mind, telling your mind that this is important and thus, your mind will remember it in a much better way.

Some of the most successful people in the world dedicated their success to note-taking. Sir Richard Branson, the billionaire who founded Virgin Group is known for his habit of taking notes. He always carries a notebook with him and whenever an idea struck him, he will jot it down.

The same goes for Bill Gates, one of the richest men in the world. Branson once shared the stage at a conference in London with Gates. And Branson said, “Despite being renowned for his computer genius, [Gates] is not above the humble pen and paper.” According to Branson, not all ideas are going to amount to something, but they are all noteworthy.

So make this your habit and write down ideas as you go through the articles here. You can always refer back to your ideas whenever you need to.

5. Keep Coming Back

Repetition is truly the mother of all skills. Most people read through something just once and they expect to become the best. If you truly want to get the most out of Wisdom Post, keep coming back for more. Repeat reading the same content so that you will program the ideas into your subconscious mind.

Most people have the wrong perspective and thought that they just need to read one or two books and they will become better and do better in life. This may be true, but most of the time, this is not going to happen. Do not expect to hit the gym once and you will have a slim and fit body the next day. Do you expect to write down your resolutions once and then by the end of the year, they will come true?

Reading and learning are skills. And the only way to improve your skills is to consistently practice them. In a nutshell, you must read and reread constantly to ingrain the ideas into your head. Dale Carnegie, the famous and best-selling author of “How to Win Friends and Influence People” wrote in his book that he once spent two years writing a book on public speaking, yet he has to keep going back to his book from time to time to remember what he has written. He wrote, “The rapidity with which we forget is astonishing.”

Hence, keep coming back for more and read more than once. Do not expect to read an article and expect you have mastered the idea. You have to do it more than once to become better at it.

6. Implementing the Ideas

You have to understand that learning is an active process, which means that you learn by doing something. George Bernard Shaw has a great quote, he said, “If you teach a man anything, he will never learn.” What this means is that if you want to learn, you must actively execute the ideas.

If you want to master the principles in Wisdom Post, you must actively implement the principles here. You cannot learn something just simply sitting in front of your computer and only do the reading. You get the most out of what you read when you apply the ideas. So do something and take action.

Of course, some content here is more technical and you can implement the steps as per suggested. However, some articles are subjective and you can only learn the principles, and implementing the ideas can be a little challenging. What you must understand is that it takes time to form the success habits and mindsets that you seek. It is a way of life. And therefore, it requires time and persistence with daily application.

This is why you need to keep coming back to these pages often. Whenever you face challenges, problems or setbacks, try to refer back to what you have read, go through your notebook and reread some of the related articles here.

7. Make a Commitment

Another great idea how you can get the most out of Wisdom Post is to refer this website to your family members, your team, your colleague, or your partner. And then you can commit to them.

For instance, you can offer your spouse or your business partner a dollar or ten dollars every time they catch you violating certain principles that you have committed. Making a public commitment is one of the most powerful forces that will put you into action and transform your life.

For example, you can make a commitment to read two or three articles here or spend 30 minutes to read and then take notes from what you have learned every day. And then you share what you have learned to your business associates. And if you fail to do so, you offer to buy them lunch. You just need to be creative in creating a public commitment that will push you forward in life.

8. Review Yourself Regularly

Review yourself from time to time to check up if you are applying the principles shared in Wisdom Post. The late CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs, once told the press that there was one simple question that he asked himself every morning to make sure he was on the right track. He asked, “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?”

And if his answer is a “no” for too many days in a row, he knew that he has to change and do something else. This is a very powerful technique that anyone can use to reflect on their lives and review on what they have done each day.

You can implement the same technique to know if you are practicing the principles you have learned here. If you do not review or reflect on the results you get in life, you will never know if things are going in the right way or if you are moving forward. It is when you review your results, you will know whether what you are doing is right or wrong.

9. Record Your Victories

Finally, record your triumphs and victories. You have to learn to celebrate all your wins. After you have implemented the ideas and principles that you learned here, jot down your application. Be specific, write down the dates and also your results. Keeping a victory record will inspire you to go further and to put in even more effort.

Get yourself a victory journal if possible. And when you have achieved a milestone or successfully implemented an idea here, write it down and keep a record. Success breeds more successes. The more success you achieved, the more confident you will be. And this will make you take more action and learn even more. You will become unstoppable.

Therefore, celebrate all your wins. No matter it is a big win or a small win, tell yourself that you are doing a good job and something even better will come to you. When you reinforce your victories, more will come to you.
