Episode description
This series, I'm sharing insights from my book Work/Life Flywheel.
In this episode, I discuss why we're moving to an era of the multi-stage life, and why that requires us to adapt our view of learning.
Chapter Summary:
- An obsession with winning will hold you back, so it's essential to reframe success.
- Rather than comparing yourself to others, focus your energy on creating a work/life that gives you purpose and in which you feel like you're making progress.
- A longer, multi-stage life means more people will start their own businesses, develop portfolio careers and develop broader networks.
- As well as formal training, staying open-minded to new experiences and discovering new perspective accelerates your learning.
- Think about your approach to learning like elite sportspeople do about training and coaching – it should be highly personalised.
- Become autodidactic and use systems to keep you on track even when creativity or motivation falter.
- Keep your eyes open for new business opportunities based on problems you experience - how could you help solve them for others?
- Take advantage of communities to help your development and then pay it back to people earlier in their journey.
