The Concept of a Digital Toolbox – Part 4<\/span><\/h2>\n

In order to become the person you\u2019re not today, you must do the things you\u2019re not doing today. \u00a0The only question one must answer is… how do you learn the new skills and habits needed to make the transition?<\/span><\/p>\n

Most successful people listen to messages or teachings to learn.<\/b>
\n<\/span>You won\u2019t find a successful person who isn\u2019t interested in learning more about their craft, trade, skill, or talent. \u00a0In fact their passion drives them to want more. I\u2019ve found a very simple and easy solution that can help anyone get the learning that will take them from where they are to where they want to be. \u00a0I listen to messages (or talks) in the form of podcasts.<\/span><\/p>\n


\n\"\"<\/span>Make use of the down-time.<\/b>
\n<\/b>In previous years, you would have to go out and purchase messages on cassette tapes, CDs, or get a DVD set. \u00a0I think we\u2019ve all but said \u201cgood-bye\u201d to physical media of tapes, CD\u2019s, and DVD messages. Today, it\u2019s so much easier and there\u2019s more available to meet your specific needs and desires. \u00a0Technology has made it quite simple for you to get information on any subject or for you to follow others in your field. Let\u2019s talk about the tools we use to increase our capacity for learning. \u00a0Remember, the tools I\u2019m sharing aren\u2019t all the tools available and I encourage you to find the one that\u2019s just right for you. I have three that I\u2019ll share with you today that I use most often:<\/span><\/p>\n

    1. iOS Podcasts<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> \u00a0While I can\u2019t say I absolutely love the podcast app on my mobile Apple devices, I can say they work for what I need them for. \u00a0I\u2019ve decided to make sure I hear messages from <\/span>my three pastors<\/span><\/a> each week. \u00a0Monday through Friday, I listen to their weekly messages via podcast (audio as well as video). \u00a0This is my morning-commute-to-work ritual. Each morning, I fill my life with inspiration, instructions, and spiritual guidance. \u00a0Over a years time do you know how many message you can consume this way? Now\u2019s the time to make a new habit and exchange local radio with podcasts that have the ability to shape and transform your life, your business. \u00a0BTW – not all podcasts have to be instructional, there are even entertaining podcasts out there for you.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          \n
        1. Overcast<\/b><\/a>. <\/b>\u00a0Overcast is another podcast solution which only does audio podcasts. \u00a0I use this app to subscribe to other podcasts, mainly people who I call my mentors. \u00a0\u00a0It has a feature that I need when I want to bookmark content I like for later. Overcast allows for its user to save the exact spot (time) so that you can always go back to the desired spot. \u00a0I use this feature like bookmarks and save them to my Note-taking app, label, and describe why I\u2019ve saved the content. Since my morning commute is filled with spiritual podcasts, my daytime commutes are filled with podcasts for my growth and development. \u00a0Overcast is a perfect solution for me when I\u2019m listening to podcasts to teach me new skills and leadership principles. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
            \n
          1. YouTube<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> \u00a0No one should underestimate the power of YouTube. \u00a0It\u2019s like learning-on-demand. You can find videos on any and everything. \u00a0For me I use it for inspirational videos that help me stay motivated to do the work we\u2019ve been designated to do. \u00a0Each Saturday morning (early), I bring my week to an end with these motivational videos.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Remember, you don\u2019t have to use my tools, I want you to have the tools that work best for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

            Today is Friday!<\/span>
            \n<\/span>Are you taking advantage of podcasts that can help shape the work you do? \u00a0Podcasts and videos for the most part are free resources that can take you from your current level to higher heights. \u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s your life; your business, how are you improving yours?<\/span><\/p>\n
