How to learn a new skill

Hello everyone,

You might think that learning a new skill in the 21st century is easy due to the easy access to information today. But I’m here to prove you wrong.

In this article I’m going to explain to you how it’s become even harder to learn a new skill now than it’s ever been before, and how to actually learn a new skill in a way I’d approach it.

So is this you? You have been sitting on your laptop at home or at the cafe trying the learn this new programming language everyone is talking about. But every time you sit down you just can’t seem to concentrate or grasp the easiest of concepts.

Many a times we tend to have a lot of things that need attendance to. We have a meeting, a job to do, some errands we have to run,a movie to binge watch, or just to many notifications. All this need to be attended to and thus limit your chances of leaning that new skill.

The best way to get past all these distractions and actually get down to learning that new skill is by actually allocating time for learning. Give yourself time, between one and two hours of learning with breaks. In this time, get yourself to seclusion, somewhere/someplace where notifications,people or noise can’t get to you and learn.

You’d be guaranteed to learn that new skill.

Always, one of the leading reasons to failure is because we don’t plan ahead. It’s always, ‘ i’ll do it when I get there’ type of thinking. So when we don’t plan, we are never going to actually accomplish any goals.

So how I’d approach this is by prioritizing my tasks. Create a simple schedule to show all the tasks you have to get done in that one day.You could use a piece of paper of course or any tool at your disposal. Now check for those tasks that need more time to complete and give them the most priority.Set a timer or reminder to make sure you don’t eat into other task’s time.

With this simple trick you will always assign time to learning a new skill and actually learn the skill.

Marcia Wieder once said ‘Commitment leads to action. Action brings your dream closer.’

You cant actually get closer to actualizing your goal to learning that new skill without actually learning and doing it everyday. ‘Practice makes perfect’, right?This brings us to procrastination, the thief of time. “I’ll do it tomorrow”, “I’m tired, tomorrow is another day”, “I still have time”. Are these common phrases in your talk,thoughts? Stop reading and think.

So, are they? If yes, don’t worry because these are everyone’s everyday’s problems. So how do you actually get around it to learning that new skill?

ii) When you plan out your work, add tasks that you are actually able to accomplish! Your brain has a limit. Realistic goals is key

iii) See the good and not always the bad. You’ve actually learnt something today, kudos! See that and you’ll wake up tomorrow wanting to do the same.

With these simple but sure and precise techniques, you will see yourself achieving more than you ever had previously.

All the best in your adventures.
