5 Best Tips When Learning
It doesn’t matter if you hula hoop or not. Here’s my 5 BEST tips when learning. Let’s GO!
My #1 one favorite LEARNING TIP?
1.) When you are trying to learn something new…try saying “I GOT THIS” to yourself.* At first you may not believe it to be true…but eventually, with practice, it WILL Be!
In addition to this “I GOT This” exclamation/affirmation Here’s my other (not so secret Now!) learning tips:
2.) Most of us work well with positive reinforcement. We are usually so quick to pull ourselves down, so anytime we can counteract our own negative forces, is a positive leap in the right direction.
3.) I have a saying, “Tell the universe what you want, not what you don’t, because the universe cant take a joke.” Putting forth what you do want, will help you way more to actually achieve it.
4.) When you focus on what you want, you magnetize it to you.
5.) *P.S. If it just feels so weird to say something positive, that you just know you won’t believe…try saying THIS! The simple switch to stop using the word “Can’t” and also adding in the word “YET” will be a positive learning game changer!

How To Get The Most Out of Workshops and Events
Going to a great workshop, conference, or learning event?
Here’s 8 of my favorite ways to get the most out of the conference/event/workshops you’ve invested your valuable time, money and energy into.
1.) Take a notebook…take actual notes and make some stick figure illustrations to help you with positioning, movement, direction, things that make sense to you, etc.
2.) Take video of the summaries, if you can. Make sure you do NOT post these anywhere, as that’s the instructor’s livelihood.
3.) If you can, get video of Yourself doing/demonstrating the moves, or even explaining it, that’s really helpful! Part of the reason is that your brain will be spinning with all the new info you will learn in those many learning moments.
Plus, the videos will help you remember that you actually DID get these moves (at least once in the workshops!), and are possible again, with patience, and lots of practice.
4.) Review your favorite parts you want to remember right away…it’ll help you retain the information.
5.) If you can, teach your new information to someone else, that will also help solidify the info even deeper so it stays in your mental toolbox. Make sure you credit your source, and just share some key key points, or cool moves, not the whole workshop, so people are interested in studying with that instructor when they can.
6.) Another note that I’ve kept true to for many, many years…Pick “one golden nugget,” just for you, from each thing you go to. That will serve you well over time, and help you feel better when you can’t remember it all (but paid to be there and participated!).
7.) Meet others, and get their contact info!* You may end up having them as a friend for years to come, as a colleague to share notes and review with, and to expand your community connection. So many wins!
8.) BONUS TIP: Always have fun. You’ll be happy to remember something you really enjoyed.
If you put these 8 tips into play, you will retain new information Sooooo much better, gain fabulous friends, and really get the most value that you can possibly can from all of your experiences!
