We are all students. Do you know your learning style? I discovered that I am an auditory learner while in college. As I accumulated and consumed lecture after lecture of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, I found that I could listen to the spoken word, retain it immediately and recall it as if it were a recording playing in my head when it was relevant to apply, recite or analyze the information. This practice changed my life. I also realized in school that paying attention in class during lectures was an easy way for me to retain information. So, to improve, I began recording my class lectures and playing them back during my down-time which dramatically improved my retention of information. I went a step further and began reading aloud, recording the most relevant information that I highlighted in my books and playing it back while driving, working out, showering, walking to class, etc. As a student of life, I apply that knowledge of my learning style today by consuming audio-books on relevant subjects that are important to me and make me a better Coach, Father, Partner and Human Being. One of my most frequently used apps on my phone is Audible, which allows me to listen to all kinds of audio books during any moment of downtime while I am going about my day. Its just one tool that helps me to improve myself based upon what I have learned about myself over the years. Self-improvement is the basis of all personal, family, community, business, national and global development. What tools do you use frequently to improve yourself?
