Do you know how to learn through action?

Yesterday in my blog I wrote about ‘learning through action’, it is based loosely on the Scientific Method. I write that because it is built on asking yourself questions after you’ve completed some action.

First of all you review what happened and write a brief account of the main events. In other words you ask yourself what happened and write a summary.

Next you list your conclusions and the lessons learned. By doing this in writing you are not assuming your conclusions as you are both thinking about the conclusions and visualizing them, thus giving you feelings about those conclusions.

Finally you write what you plan to do in the future to put your conclusions into practice. This is when the learning takes place as when you plan to do something to improve a situation, you have learned.

When you take action the next time, you are testing your theory of your conclusions and will see if your learning was enough to make a difference.

Are you now committed to learning through action now?
