“No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals.” ~ Brian Tracy
Whether you work online or offline and you are looking for solutions to problems or if you have questions, the answers can usually be found when you are willing to learn and practice something new and different.
When you learn how to use the incredible power of your mind and you apply new ideas and information, you will be able to become a Leader in your field and gain the respect of those in your Industry.
We need to embrace never ending growth and development, continuous learning, and constant improvement. If you make the commitment to this discipline, you will be able to build a better self, team, organization, and world.
We can become exceptional at any skill if we are willing to learn, grow, improve and change. If you want to become more effective, we simply must continue to improve, not just maintain the status quo.
It takes a certain mindset to be able to remain on the path of continuous learning, but those that persevere will accomplish their goals and dreams and become Leaders in the field of their choice. The good news is that you can choose that path everyday….but, your first decision is to become a continuous learner.
So remember, you can’t get better results if you choose to apply your current knowledge and abilities. If you want to earn more in the future, you must learn and apply new methods and techniques.
In the following video by Brian Tracy, you will find out why it is so important to be a Continuous Learner…
According to Brian Tracy, there are nine disciplines you can develop that will improve every area of your life. We have learned that every exercise of self-discipline strengthens every other discipline at the same time, just as every weakness in self-discipline weakens you in other disciplines as well.
Now, let’s hear what Brian Tracy says as we focus on the Discipline Of Continuous Learning …
“To earn more you must learn more.”
- Leaders Are Readers .. Read in your field 30-60 minutes each day. This will translate into one book per week, 50 books per year.
- Listen And Learn… Listen to CD’s in your car as you drive from place to place. This will amount to 500-1000 hours per year.
- Learn From The Experts… Attend seminars and take courses given by experts in your field. One idea from one course can save you years of hard work.
- The average income in America increases at 3% per annum. With compound interest, the average person doubles their income every 22 years.
- With the additional knowledge and skill you can apply to get better results, you increase your income at 10%, 15% and even 25% per year.
*10% per annum increase means that you double your income in 7.2 years.
*25% increase per annum means that you double your income in 2 years and 8 months.
- Work on yourself as if your future depends on it, because it does.
Personal development and quality business training has never been more important than it is today.
Consider these facts:
- The average person will increase their salary by only 2-3% annually.
- Each year inflation increases by approximately 2-3% annually.
- That means that, without lifelong learning, it’s virtually impossible for the average person to get ahead.
However…
- Top Achievers, people who are continually learning and growing, DOUBLE their income every 3-5 years.
- This is why the top 10-20% increase their incomes by an average of 11% annually and earn more than the bottom 80%!
- To separate yourself from the pack, you often need to know just one additional skill…and that will make all the difference in your pay scale.

Hi Marc,
This was a great post. I think I have learned more being out of school than in it. School/college is limited by subject matter. But outside, everyday living, continuous reading, oh it’s just a joy. I get audio books from audible ,com and I love them. I also subscribe to Success Magi zine and each issue comes with a CD… I love books which is funny because I used to hate reading as a kid. My radio show also has me reading a lot becasue of the guests that are on sometimes… you learn so much… great post – informative and inspirational as usual, thank you …
@Lesly Federici,

To your success,
Marc
Hi Marc the part i like the most is when you said:
“It takes a certain mindset to be able to remain on the path of continuous learning, but those that persevere will accomplish their goals and dreams”
It’s true to say it’s only the people who persevere because even if you know what to do to succeed if you quite when it seem to hard or impossible you never gonna reach your goal.
So thank Marc for sharring
Hi Marc,
Great reinforcements in this post. I always teach my kids that even though experience is the best teacher, you don’t have to have the experience yourself. You can create leverage by learning from other people’s experiences, whether they are negative or positive.
In this electronic age, of multi-tasking and leveraging time, listening to audios is as efficient as it will get. Continuous growth is easier to attain in this age. Thanks for the stimulation.
Marc,
Great stuff here! We all expect changes to happen overnight because that is what a lot of the marketing tells us is going to happen. But you hit the nail right on the head. It is like the Tortoise and the Hare. It takes time to grow. Like a garden takes time.
