5 Wealthy Woman Learning Hacks to Raise Your Income & Impact
Learning is the gateway to mastery, income, and impact. To grow, you must be willing to learn new things and open your mind to fresh ideas.
Plus, wealthy woman hacks are all about working smarter, not harder. So, how can you learn more (and grow) in far less time? Check out today’s action steps!
Hack #1. Always Have Something Ready
I learned this lesson during my 52 books in a year challenge. Bring a book, or have a course or podcast ready anytime you leave the house. Instead of scrolling your phone while you wait for an appointment or kids activity, use the downtime to learn.
It’s a very small difference, but it leads to hours of extra learning that you would have otherwise wasted.
2. Set a Daily Learning Goal
One of my favorite authors advocates learning for at least 45 minutes a day. If that’s too much, aim for 20 minutes. Or even 10.
Every little bit counts. And the days add up.
To make this happen:
- Schedule it into your day
- Start small and build up to a longer time (start with just 1 page if you need to!)
- Use a habit tracker, commitment card, or book log to track your progress and stay accountable.
3. Set Up a Learning Environment
Designate a space in your home or workplace conducive to learning. Keep it organized, free from distractions, and stocked with your materials (books, notebooks, and online resources).
Make learning easily accessible and enjoyable!
4. Take Notes for Better Retention
If you’re like me (and many others), you retain twice as much if you take notes and engage with the material. So, make better use of your time and jot down ideas, ask questions, summarize key points, and teach the concepts to others to master the concepts you’re learning.
5. Make it Fun
Finally, if what you are learning is boring or a bit technical, jazz up your learning time with strategies that make it more enjoyable. Try interactive quizzes, online flashcards, catchy videos, and games to keep you in the learning spirit.
Note: This site has lots of money games for this reason! Making things fun is a key strategy to stick with learning and growing long-term.
