Learn and understand
Sometimes learning can feel like a chore. Sometimes it seems
that learning is just the mundane, yet necessary thing you
must do before you undertake whatever it is you really want
to do.
Yet learning is much more than that. In additional to
showing you what action to take, learning also can
significantly increase the effectiveness of that action.
Learning is not merely an obligatory step on the path to
action. Learning has a value all its own, a value that lasts
long after you've completed whatever it was that compelled
you to learn in the first place.
Learning not only enables you to know what and how. It also
provides you the opportunity to understand why.
Understanding why can add enormous value and effectiveness
to anything you do. When you have a solid grasp of the
fundamental concepts behind your actions, you give the power
of purpose to those actions.
Leverage the energy of your efforts. Learn so that you can
do, and so that you will understand.
