We had Steve Cunningham on the podcast almost 4 years ago. He absolutely ROCKED it then and this time around was no different! If you don’t get something out of this episode, I’m worried about you…

By now you probably know that Steve is the Founder and CEO of ReadItFor.Me  He takes the latest business and personal development books and creates short, video, executive summaries. I have recommended their program for several years now and many of my friends and business colleagues have subscribed as well.

What is “Intentional Learning?”

We certainly talked briefly about his company, but we really dug into this idea of “Intentional Learning.” Simply put, by thinking about how you are going to utilize the information you are learning (before even learning it) makes all the difference! He shared a great example of an experiment that scientists performed on three groups of people. All three groups were asked to exercise, but there was a stunning difference in the results between groups. I won’t spoil the outcome. You will definitely want to listen… 

So What?

Steve suggests that one of the biggest differentiators between most people and the ultra-successful is their laser focus on being intentional about their learning. I have been preaching the importance of a personal development plan for a long time now. I believe that with Steve’s suggestions I can take my development to the next level. Will you join me?

Short but Sweet

I’m going to keep the show notes for this episode short, but don’t think that means this episode isn’t seriously impactful.

Why can’t I get that stupid Alanis Morissette song out of my head?

Just as a side note: Not a single thing Alanis sings about in that song is actually ironic. Maybe that’s the ironic part? They certainly are unfortunate, but she needs to look up the definition of irony.
