Self-Education Habits That Enable You to Teach Yourself Anything


Listen Later

You don’t have to attend college to get a great education these days. There are so many educational materials readily available, often for free, that formal education is unnecessary in many circumstances. You can’t teach yourself to be a licensed teacher or physician, but there are a lot of things you can learn on your own.

You don’t have to attend school to learn about Egypt, speak French, train your dog, play the piano, or how to weld. With the right habits, you can learn just about anything you like.

Effective learning requires a set of effective habits:

1. Follow your motivation.

It’s much easier to study or practice something that truly interests you. There are plenty of things you don’t know that you’d like to know more about. What are those things? Make a list. Life is short, so spend your time wisely.

2. Read.

Whatever it is that interests you, odds are that someone has written a book about it. In fact, there are probably hundreds of books on your topic of interest. Make it a habit to read, at least a little, each day. Seek out the most important books related to your area of study and work your way through them.

3. Practice.

If you’re interested in learning a skill, you’ll have to practice regularly if you want to master it. Break up your practice into several sessions a day if possible. The more frequently you practice, the more skilled you will ultimately become.

4. Study daily.

There’s reading, and there’s studying. Reading is a passive activity. Studying takes things to a higher level. When you study, you have the intention of educating yourself. You have the intention of understanding, not just adding facts to your knowledge base.

● Reading a math book isn’t the same as studying for a math test.
