This entry is part 3 of 3 in the series Lets Make Money

You’re going to be thinking by the and of this post, “hmm, shouldn’t you of told me this at the begining of the series Dan”, well No. If I had showed you the following learning tips at the start of the Lets Make Money series, you would, without a doubt miss an important learning lession. As I told you before, I’ve been doing this for sometime now. Over that time I’ve learnt, and still learn to this day better ways to improve your success online… So then, you got to be asking yourself by now, whats the big lession?.. I’ll giving you the answer to that in the coming series, hehe

Today however we focus On helpful learning tips

Are you ready?

Good…

How long should you learn/study at one time?

As the years have past the answer to this question has change over and over again. However, with the growing success of NLP, personal development studies and research, they are now saying with every 30 to 35 minutes you learn/study you should take at less 5 or even 10 minutres break. Having said that, you should only do this if you’re finding the studying of your given topic comes easy to you. If what you’re learning is hard to understand or diffcult, then for every 18 minutes its recommended you take 5 minutes break.

The true is that everyone is a little different than the next. I find if I start to fog out, thats a good time to stop learning and take a break. I go out to the gym, or play my xbox 360, or have a cup of tea. The aim is to refresh, and come back stronger. When you can recall 90 to 95 percent and/or the facts without struggling to remember them, thats when you can more on to the next bit of information.

Learning with Music

You may of hear before that listening while listening to classical music can increase your recall. And thats kind of true, but its not classical music, it baroque. The soothing and rhythmic “baroque” music can indeed put your mind into a relaxed and alertness state that they say can boost your recall by 25%. It has something to do with the tempo I’m told. The tempo must be approx 60 M.M. (60 Beats/minutes). Whatever that means?” All I know is that it works.

Terminate All Distractions

If you’re working or learning, then the out side world can wait! Minimize all distractions. Separate your working and personal life. Remember why you want to start making money online. In fact, write down “right now” why you want to make money online and stick it to the wall where you can see it as you work or learn. BUT, also remember at the same time you have a life to live.

Eat first, hmm?

Lots of people tell you to eat before learning. Don’t! Eat half hour or an hour before learning. Let your body digest the food first. This will help you focus better.

Commit to learning

Once you start learning something like one of Davids Video’s, learn it. Doesn’t just start it, finish it.

…………..

OK. Here something you always need to do, and why I started this post the way I did.

Taking Notes

With every video you watch you need to take notes. Why? Simple because later of in this series I’m going to piecing the whole 4D-MMB course into a easy to use system (yes I know David does this for you already in the end video, but not like the way I’m about to show you). However, you will only be able to do this if you have notes from all the video’s within Davids 4D-MMB course.

Here’s some questions to ask yourself when watching the video’s:

What is the number and name of this video?
What is this video about?
What are the techniques David is teaching in this video? (Write them down into steps, parts, elements)
Do I understand what is been said? (If not, email David).

Then write a summary of the video

For now thats all I’m going to say about this. The next series will be on organization, Lets Make Money Series Number 4.
