Actually, we’re happy to put ourselves forward as the expert for anyone who wants to learn how to start your kick-ass web writer business. Who wants to learn about OIL RIGS? Learning how to learn was my goal. However, beyond a certain level, I think you really need to work with or learn from other people to progress.

Sure, it’s great to hit the snooze button and give yourself an extra hour of R&R once in awhile, but before you know it, you’re getting up at noon and puttering around before you answer your customer emails. I’ll see if I can get any of the ones you listed at the library (or inter-library-loan) and check out the rest on Amazon.

Explore the library and haunt book-stores for new ideas. I’d say the biggest lessons I’ve learned, both on the job and now in my post journo career as a writer/illustrator/etc…, is to accentuate what you do best and what makes you unique. It sounds cliche, but I just learned to out-hustle my competition.

We should revisit our knowledge, then and now, and see how much we’ve learned. So, did your youngest daughter learn to type with 10 fingers? I’ve definitely learned a lot about writing and blogging since those first few posts; some posts really make me cringe as they were unformed compared with what I write now.

One of the lessons I learned early on was that it's easy to be busy and think you are being productive. I learned my lesson really quickly. I learned that as a business owner my focus has to be on my customers and sales, not busy work and errands. Focus On Customers, Not Tasks. Thanks to Paul Burton of QuietSpacing.

So, based on what the stimuli offers, we browse our internal library and pick whatever we think it might be appropriate. When Copy Pasting Is Playing Nice If you burned your hand once, then copy pasting forgoes the need to repeat the contact of your hand with the fire a thousand times to learn the consequences. Well, I dont.

Unlike the person who seems mentally permalinked to 1994, I’m constantly learning new things at a tremendous pace, mostly just because I love it. Too many want to turn this critical aspect of their business over to others, without learning even the slightest part of it. What are the learning lessons?

You put hours of effort and study into learning a certain subject inside and out. You probably can’t remember when you last put the knowledge you learned in university to work in your everyday business affairs. You’ve probably forgotten half of what you learned, too. I didn’t pay attention to what I’d learned.

Many people out there have learned their lessons the hard way, assuming that because it’s for sale, it must be accurate information. They can be inspiring, they can be uplifting, or they can help you reach your goals, from learning how to juggle to shaking off low self-esteem to improving your business. And I still worry.

Tame Your Email 1. Turn off email alerts when emails arrive in your inbox. If you know that you will never answer an email, delete it right away. Create email folders same as you would for word doc and paper files. Examples: If you have a full email box, then schedule an hour each morning to tackle it.

Not only because I coded every single line of it, but because this app is the tangible result of more than 3 years of testing, learning and writing about personal productivity. Third: I am obsessed with learning new things. Learned how to create a project and what the folder structure means. Program received “BAD_EXC” message.

In most part, I had a lot of fun reading through applications and learning more about people. Like, say, emailing us to ask if this is the right email to email us at, when the email you should use to apply is written on the job ad. I needed one person and got 91 emails… A couple of amusing ones.

That’s like being able to attend a workshop given by an expert authority three times a week and learn how to improve your business without paying a penny. We want you to learn, to better your business, to succeed. And there will always be different formats, because people learn differently. Now, that’s great.
