WEEK 15

Day 99: On Applying Knowledge

Reading 32 books means you’re reading a lot, but does it mean you’re

applying it?

—Darren Hardy

 

94

It’s  day  99,  so  you’ve  already  read  98  entries,  with  most  of  them

offering tips you can immediately implement in your life. How many have

you applied so far? If the answer is zero and you have no intention of doing

so, what’s the point of continuing to read this book?

Whenever you’re reading a non-fiction book for educational purposes,

try  to  find  at  least  one  important  lesson  that  you’ll  apply  in  your  life.  It

doesn’t  have  to  be  anything  big  —  the  point  is  to  develop  a  habit  of

applying at least some knowledge from each book you read.

I’ll give you some examples from my own reading list.

When I read The One Thing by Gary Keller, I decided to always seek

only one key action to improve any given area of my life. In the case of my

self-publishing  business,  it  was  the  decision  to  stick  to  a  consistent

publishing schedule (an activity I discovered to be the one thing that makes

everything  else  easier  or  unnecessary)  and  foregoing  any  other  endeavors

that take a lot of time, but bring few results (such as participating in social

media) .


When  I  educated  myself  about  dividend  stock  investing  by  reading

some books, countless articles and blog posts, I used their suggestions for

building my own portfolio. Within a couple of weeks of educating myself

about dividend stocks, I’d already bought some shares.

When  I  read  two  practical  books  about  rock  climbing,  I  identified  a

technique I considered to be a key tool for self-improvement (establishing a

specific  intention  prior  to  scaling  a  wall,  such  as  an  intention  to  focus  on

proper hip-positioning), and started using it during my workouts.




If  you  finish  a  non-fiction  book  and  don’t  act  upon  any  of  its

suggestions,  you’ve  wasted  time.  When  reading,  always  think  about  how

you  can  apply  the  teachings  in  your  own  life  —  not  about  how  you  can

finish the book faster so you can begin reading another one.
