UNDERSTANDING YOUR TRUE ABILITY

UNDERSTANDING YOUR TRUE ABILITY

Recently I've been working on multiple creative projects with much success. People usually despise multitasking but, I was amazed at how good it was working out for me. Then I remembered how someone told me that I had an ability in organization. That's when it struck me, I wasn't doing several different things , I was doing one thing several different ways.

When I draw I'm essentially organizing shapes and color into beautiful compositions. When I make music it is simply the organization of words and melodies forming into a seamless tune. Our ability doesn't lies in the medium, it lies in the action.

You may have the ability to read people really well and that skill can translate to playing defense in football to being a therapist. Once we understand our true nature of abilities we will be able to stretch our wings further and conquer more than what we previously limited ourselves too. Nothing is stopping us it's just up to each individual to figure out what their true abilities are and how to act upon them.

HOW TO TAKE EDUCATION INTO YOUR OWN HANDS

HOW TO TAKE EDUCATION INTO YOUR OWN HANDS

Yesterday I started to amp up the amount of resources I would go to, for more information about business/entrepreneurship. This action made me remember how I would handle my pursuit of education during my undergrad years. When my marketing professor finished his lecture I always felt like it wasn't enough and it wasn't specified to what I wanted to know about marketing. So I would always go to the library and go to various websites like fast company,Forbes,etc and check out various books to read in my own spare time. Those actions were me taking my education into my own hands, anyone could do the same if they posses the two traits I displayed.

I. NATURAL INCLINATION

I chose my major as business marketing because that is what came natural to me. I was always conscious of how I was portrayed and I used how I dress, my talents, and my social behavior to dictate how I was going to display myself to the world and that would also have an effect on how people perceive me. It's more difficult (not impossible) to educate yourself on things that doesn't come as natural to you. If you're good at math it wouldn't make sense to thwart your efforts towards english. By honing in on what come natural to you, you can make your path to becoming an educated master on your craft much smoother.

II. DESIRE TO LEARN

I wasn't satisfied with what my professor told me. I genuinely wanted to know more about marketing and how to give my business more reach not just get a passing grade without have any real applicable knowledge. You can have natural athletic tendencies but if you have no desire to put in hours at the gym, you'll never reach your full potential.

Overall true education starts outside the classroom. If a person is solely dependent on one source of learning, that person isn't left with much to grow from. Formal education must be treated as just another part of your learning and never being your end all be all.

POWER OF REPETITION

POWER OF REPETITION

 In my recent days of preparing for a big task ahead [I'll reveal at a later date], I've been required to do a lot of reading, I mean A LOT! It's been done with the purpose of me to understand and comprehend the concepts that are presented before me. I realized that repetition is what really drives information to our core.

 It's why our parents used to have to tell us things more than once and it's even why the radio play a song more than once. A song can't be a hit from being played once but you can understand what your parents mean by being hit once, lol.

 When a song on the radio is played constantly and constantly it causes a couple of things.It drives the melody into our sub-conscious and we take a liking to the song the more we hear it. Even if we don't listen to the song in our spare time we still know the words to songs we don't even like because how frequently it's played.

 The true power of repetition is when what we constantly repeat becomes second nature to us. If you can get it in one try kudos to you, but there will always be something that you will have to try again and only repetition will assist you in the task you're trying so hard to complete.
