We are going even further now to focus on how you can apply what you read in your life after capturing and retaining the most important ideas in supporting that you focus in which ones you really want to apply. Because when you put ideas into practice, you will memorize them even more. By putting them into your long term memory, you are also able to, to change some aspects of your life to improve it for better. In fact, when we read books, we try to learn new lessons that we can later apply and make our own lives better. So it's very important to make a conscious effort to create a short plan to apply what you just read in your own life. It's not very practical nor realistic to try to apply all the suggestions that are given in a book in your own life because some of the ideas that you might read might go a little bit against your values are pretty As your priorities or your habits, if you pick two or three ideas to implement, you can already impact positively your life.
The key is to try a few things first, and see the difference that they can make in your life. Usually the things and habits that I try to commit myself to apply how to do with intention. So I said in the questions I asked the book, so I asked this book, How can I deal with my anxiety? I found the answers and now I have to know exactly what am I going to do to apply what I just learned in the worksheet, I have to keep all the information about the book I read. I also create a section with the three things that I'm going to try today. It's very important that you put those things into practice right away when the ideas in the book is still very fresh in your own mind.
I add those three things into my own schedule and I make them a priority when you make an effort to try To apply what you read, you become a true active learner, you gain really experience from the principles stated in the book. And knowledge becomes a part of your long term memory because you dedicated time to strength, the neural pathways in your own brain. So after reading all the information you were looking for in a book, come up with the three next actions that will help you to implement some of those principles. It's very fun to experiment with different ideas and strategies. And I really like this process and you should like it too. After trying three different ideas, you can pick one of them and try to make it a habit.
Most of the positive habits that I have now came from ideas that I read in a book, I decided to try them and implement them. And because I really enjoyed the benefits, I decided to make them a habit. It's one thing to read about the advantages of something, but it's another thing to try it and experiment those for yourself, so make sure you come up with three ways about how you can implement what you just read today.
