Learning
December 11th, 2009
I’ve spent this week taking an online course called “How to be an Entrepreneur as a Business Journalist“. While I am not technically a business journalist, a significant project I am brewing here would definitely put me in that ballpark – but more on that at another time. More importantly I have learned a LOT and here a just a few of my learnings:
- Sometimes free content is actually amazing! As this whole week’s worth of classes was free AND amazing.
- It pays big time to be part of professional organizations (whether formally or informally organized). For example, I found out about this weeks class through an ad-hoc freelance group I belong to.
- Your goal is to work less trying to get work and spend more time working. So stop dawdling by thinking you don’t know enough to get started; but if you feel you really need to learn something you will find a way of getting that information (and sometimes for free).
Those are some of the thoughts that come to mind but of course, I have a whole lot more to process through before the day is over. Have a great weekend!
