Why is it tricky? Well because there is so much to learn and never enough time. I\u2019m not just talking about technology. Sure, Technology changes are happening almost daily, but there are other things that transcend technology. For example, how to be a better human being, how to think better, or even how to think at all. We\u2019re so busy being consumed by media, that we don\u2019t even have time to think.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is all inspired by my conversation with Amin Ibrahim on this week\u2019s podcast. Funny enough, we never talked about learning specifically, but through talking to him, I learned a lot.<\/span><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/wethesalesengineers.com\/187-discovering-your-career-home-of-years-of-nomading\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #0000ff;\">Listen to our show with Amin here.<\/span><\/a><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another thing to learn about is storytelling.

I\u2019m very comfortable reading about sales engineering, sales, technology, and self-improvement. After talking to Amin, I noticed that he does not limit himself to anything. One thing I need to learn is to read things that I\u2019m not comfortable with, for example, philosophy, politics, or anything else that\u2019s outside my comfort zone.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2- I find the best way to learn is to talk to other people with experiences different than you. Last week I was on 2 PreSales in a Pod with Don Carmichael and Adam Freeman. After the call, we just talked about sales engineering, life, and progress. From that 10 minute conversation, I had 10 takeaways.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3- This dovetails into my chat with Amin, who specifically looks for people who are different from him to hire. They bring different experiences, ways of thinking, and ways of solving problems.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4- You are the average of the 5 people you associate with the most. If you\u2019re the smartest person in that bunch, you have no one to learn from.<\/span><\/p><\/div><h4>\u00a0<\/h4><h2 style=\"font-size: 25px;\">1 Tool:<\/h2><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/episode\/7aL29X9W30uYoSVxR9fTod?si=mTWDPS-3Rnqzqp0rOqEraA\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><u>My Episode on Two PreSales in a Pod<\/u><\/span><\/a><\/p><p>More of a resource, I was recently a guest on Two Presales in a Pod with Adam Freeman and Don Carmichael.
