Do you ever feel like there is WAY too much to learn or feel guilty for not learning enough?

Financial literacy, AI, automation software, job site best practices, leadership theory…

The list of things you COULD go and figure out is endless.

But what if I told you the answer is actually to learn LESS?

Our guest today is Pat Flynn: entrepreneur, podcast host and author of several books including Superfans and Will it Fly?

In his newest book Lean Learning, Pat lays out a tangible framework for spending LESS time learning the RIGHT things.

And today, we’re talking about how to understand what you NEED to learn, what you WANT to learn, and what you DON’T need to learn at all.

Episode Highlights:

- Understand the dangers of “over-learning” as a contractor and entrepreneur and why we feel so much pressure to “know it all.”

- Learn Pat’s framework for determining what is worth learning and what is a waste of your time and energy.

- Get tips on avoiding “analysis paralysis” by focusing on ONLY the important data points to make a decision for your business.
