Life Skills
The Price of Unlearning & Relearning Skills
I am currently reading Gary Vaynerchuk’s latest book “Crushing It” and it is reminding me of how diverse the blue ocean of opportunities are in 2018.
With this blue ocean of opportunities comes desirable skill sets. Acquiring new skill sets while maintaining old skill sets is probably the hardest part about adapting to a new entrepreneurial pursuit or moving to a new company position. With only so much neurological space to go around, our brains actually trim our neurons to become better and more efficient with our current workload, thought processes and responsibilities of life.
Amazing, right?
Through my experience in changing positions, adapting to life changes and moving to new cities, I understand that there is a steep price that comes with learning and relearning new skills. The price may be different for each of you but for me that price for me is energy.
Whenever you start something new, move somewhere new or decide to work at a new job, the price tag usually comes with an abundance of energy. Sometimes that is physical energy, sometimes emotional. But most often in the business & entrepreneurial world, the price is mental energy.
