1008. Why Do We Make Things So Much Harder On Ourselves?

Why do we make things so much harder on ourselves?

That's the question we're tackling in Episode #1008 of What's Your Problem?

Most people have been taught that knowledge is power. I disagree.

Organized knowledge is power.

There's a big difference between consuming information and actually understanding it.

In this episode, I share one of the biggest lessons I've learned from Napoleon Hill's Law of Success: there are two ways to gain knowledge. 

The first is through other people's knowledge—the lessons, mistakes, experiences, books, podcasts, interviews, and wisdom left behind by those who went before us. 

The second is through personal experience.

The problem is that most of us ignore the instructions and choose to learn everything the hard way.

We admire successful people. We like the highlights. We long for the finished product. But too often, we skip the process that got them there.

 Why reinvent what others have already sacrificed to leave behind? 

This episode is about becoming a student of your craft. It's about organizing what you learn, developing a deeper understanding, and leveraging the experiences of others to shorten your learning curve without eliminating the work required.

You still have to do the work.

You still have to gain your own experience.

But you don't have to start from scratch.

If you've ever felt like you're working harder than necessary, spinning your wheels, or trying to figure everything out on your own, this episode is for you.

Listen in and ask yourself:

Why am I making this so hard on myself?
