online-business-teach-to-learn-1Recently, I was listening to a mini-workshop on social media. There was a panel of social media experts. The leader was saying that he was learning, too. Then he asked, “How many of you do training to learn yourselves?” Most of these experts raised their hand!

I’ve done this myself. I needed to learn something for myself, so I organized a course and that was the structure for me to learn the topic. Then I taught it.

If you’re afraid to teach a class until you’re an expert, then you won’t learn as much. There’s an old saying, “The teacher learns more than the student.”

So get out there and teach!

I’m not saying that you should teach completely unprepared. But if people need to know a topic, you can research it, compile it, curate it, organize it, write it up — and teach it.

It takes a certain self-confidence to do this, but self-confidence is an essential characteristic that you need for success. If you’re afraid, you can’t succeed.

You need to get out of your comfort zone to move forward. Everyone who is successful feels fear and moves through it.

Whatever the next step of action is for you, write it down. Put it into steps. Put it on your calendar. Do it. OK?
