We all go through the 4 stages of learning which forms the habits we currently have. But there are some habits that benefit us and there are others that don’t, but the question is what habits do you want to form in order to become successful at whatever you do?
“You cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him discover it within himself.” ~ Galileo Galilei
The 4 stages of learning are the actual habits, good or bad, that are formed within our subconscious mind. Knowing these stages will give you the understanding of why you do the things you do in your mlm network business as well as any other businesses you may be involved in.
So think about this…
Many of you took a foreign language when you were you in school.
The majority of schools require you to take a couple of years of some type of foreign language which is great.
Some of you went to the extent of taking 4 or 5 years of the foreign language.
Some of you really enjoyed it, and as a matter of fact some of you have gotten good grades in the classes.
Now if you didn’t maintain speaking and hearing that foreign language, what happens?
You start to forget a lot of what you “learned”
This applies in anything that you “learn”.
The 4 Stages Of Learning: Reaching the Automatic Goal
The 4 Stages Of Learning is the process of true learning. They are unconscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, and unconscious competence.
When I say Reaching the Automatic Goal this is where you automatic do an action that you put an effort into learning whether it was in grade school or some other way.
For example:
Lets just say you wanted to learn the language of the Choctaw People of the United states. You went to school to learn their language and you actually lived within the Choctaw nation picking up the slang and customs.
It’s gotten to the point to where if you happen to meet a person in a totally different area of the world who is of Choctaw decent that actually speaks the language and they actually spoke to you in their language and you automatically answer them back without thinking about it.
What’s the point:
The point is that you want to create the habits that will benefit you in your business. You want to have the habits that top producers do in order to reach their level, right?
In a post I did on The Training Balance Scale, I talked about what you should focus on the most “The Why” or “The How To” in order to be successful. Just to add, The positive habits that you have will build the belief system in order to leverage the Law Of Attraction so that it will work for you.
So lets go into the 4 Stages Of Learning
The 4 Stages Of Learning: Unconscious Incompetence
Many people have not heard of the Choctaw Indian people of the United States. These people lived in the areas of Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Arksansas for centuries. They had their on language, culture and government.
When it comes to this many of you were probably unconscious of them, and do not know their languages. You don’t know what you don’t know which is the level of unconscious incompetence.
The 4 Stages Of Learning: Conscious Incompetence
Now that I told you that there is an Indian People called the Choctaw and they have their own specific language, now you’re conscious about them.
But if a person from this nation were to actually walk up to you and start speaking to you in their native language, you’re not going to understand a word that they say, meaning your incompetent when it comes to speaking their language
Conscious Incompetence is where you’ve been taught something but it’s all just data to you that just doesn’t make sense, but as the learning process progresses you are open minded and want to learn more.
The 4 Stages Of Learning: Conscious Competence
This is the stage to where you’re starting to learn more about the culture and language of the Choctaw People. If someone speaks to you in choctaw you may ask them to repeat a couple of times. And to answer them back, you may have to think about what you want to say before you say it so that they can understand.
So when it comes to Conscious Competence, this is the level to where your learning a type of information or action, but yet you have to think about the information or action before performing it as with the Choctaw language.
The 4 Stages Of Learning: Unconscious Competence.
This is the goal you want to reach. Not only can you speak the choctaw language but you know the customs and culture like the back of your hand. You can have a deep conversation with someone who speaks the language without really thinking about it. Everything just comes out automatically.
The Unconscious Competence stage is where everything you learned is saved in your subconscious mind. Without even thinking about it, you can automatically perform the action.
The 4 Stages Of Learning: The Value and Applying
Many of you who have an MLM Networking Business or any other business have certain habits that influences your success. There of course are the habits that are beneficial to you and there are the one’s that are detrimental to you.
