I am faced with much useful information everyday. Too much actually! I would love to read it all, study it, apply it, but my days are too short. How do you handle that overload and still get ahead? Shuff it away? Give up? Choose some things? How do you choose what you look at?
As much as I hate productivity systems, "getting things done" encourages its users to write everything down and sort it later. I find this helps me deal with information overload more than anything else, since I don't have to remember as much on a short term basis. If you're interested, there's a lot of stuff available online about it--I heard about it from the wikipedia page.
Most who have been through that very situation, say to pick something you like and focus on in until it makes money for you. You can always go a different direction later.
I actually had this problem for a LONG-TIME... All I would do is read and read, and then pick something else to read... The problem was I never actually USED any of it! When I changed this, my income changed dramatically James
Pick one thing and take action. then repeat it over and over. The taking action part is tough for a lot of people though. Get through that and you're halfway there.
If you exhausted so much from reading/learning, sounds like you are all over the place. Like the others said here - you need to focus on 1 thing.
It looks like I need to focus in and say "no" to some stuff at the moment to experience a break-though!
Valuable information shouldn't be looked on overloading however if you've not read something that you saved within a week that reflect you've no interest to read it, just delete it.
Thank you all for your help - I got organised this week and have start enjoying collecting bits and pieces that I can use later!
