Show me a person who EARNS a lot, and I’ll show you a person who LEARNS a lot.
Period.
Earning comes from learning.
BUT, HERE’S THE CATCH: The word “learn” derives from the Old English term, leornian, which means, “to cultivate.”
So, there’s a certain dedication inherent in the learning process.
Learning isn’t just reading. Or listening. Or writing stuff down.
Learning is WORK. And it all starts with that moment … that epiphany … that exact point of reference in which you gain something new.
THEN … to truly and honestly embrace the essence of what’s happening inside, around and TO you.
THEN … to patiently allow those little nuggets of wisdom to profoundly penetrate you.
THEN … to think on those things through some combination of writing, discussing and meditation; or whatever process of reflection you choose to practice.
THEN … to slowly get outside of yourself and begin to notice the application of those nuggets in the lives of others.
And ultimately, this makes you bigger.
