Five Mistakes I Have Made With Personal Development Information: “”

(Via Positivity Blog.)

With all of the social media tools out there, it can get very daunting very fast if you’re not careful about planning, organizing, and actually getting things done. I came across this post a while back and thought I’d share it with you today.

Essentially it has some quick tips on how not to get sucked into ‘personal development’ books, etc. But I think it applies equally as well to managing your online life and making sure things don’t get too out of hand.

The main tips are:

  • Don’t take in too much information (it’s easy to get sidetracked and confused)
  • Just reading things once (you gain additional insight and knowledge by reading things more than once)
  • Not applying or testing the information (don’t take ‘their’ word for it, go out and try these things out)
  • Go looking for magic pills (they don’t exist so don’t waste your time)
  • Share/Bookmark
