Michael came
to me few months ago to learn online marketing and his immediate response was “I
don’t have much time wait. I want to start making money online immediately.”
In reply I
told him making money online is a process, it’s a learning curve which does n’t
happen overnight. To explain my point further I gave him the example of
cultivation. Cultivation is a process that involves various stages – preparing the
soil, sowing the seeds, removing the weeds, nourishing it with manure and
water, protecting it and waiting for the entire duration of the growth cycle of
the crop.. until it is ready for harvesting. There is no way to cram the
process. It is same with the learning curve when it comes to online marketing.
With effective
teaching methods the time factor can be shrunk, but never eliminated. Mental
development needs time, maturity needs time, growth needs time, learning needs
time. Attempting to cram the whole process, seeking short cuts to development
and quick-fix solutions may provide instant gratification, but never long term
results.
Learning is
a natural phenomenon and it has four stages:
Firstly, Unconscious
Incompetence: I don’t know that I don’t know
Secondly, Conscious
Incompetence: I know that I don’t know
Thirdly, Conscious
Competence: I know that I know how to do this
Finally, Unconscious
Competence: What I do, I do well
Sadly,
Michael was not ready to go though these four stages of learning curve. That’s
why he could never make it in online marketing.
Are you
ready? To move though these four stages of learning and acquiring knowledge.
