What is the value of knowledge that is not applied? Is there any use of theoretical wisdom <\/a>if it is not put to practice? The logical answer to these questions seems to be that there is not too much value in the mere acquisition of data. Yet, people seem to be addicted to the consumption of information. For theory junkies information comes first. Implementing what they have learned is an entirely different subject that is more often than not neglected. Knowledge is power<\/strong>. Most people know that. At least, everybody keeps repeating the phrase like a mantra<\/em>. Knowledge, however, does not simply appear out of nothingness. One needs information or real-life experience for knowledge to manifest. In most cases, it is easier to acquire information from the experts in their fields than acquiring it through trial and error.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In fact, it can be really tempting to listen to the vast and exciting knowledge of all the experts out there. After all, we strive to continuously improve ourselves, so what could be better than learning from the best of the best?<\/p>\n

\n

I owe my success to having listened respectfully to the very best advice, and then going away and doing the exact opposite.<\/em>
\nGilbert K. Chesterton<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It feels good to be informed about this and to be prepared for that. A little too good, if you ask me. As a consequence of this, people have become addicted to information. They read one book after another, article after article. They consume whatever video, podcast or workshop might be relevant in their present situation.<\/p>\n

This in itself is not the problem. In fact, it is great that people are curious and informed. The problem starts whenever we do not apply what we consider to be relevant. Once we regard the information as pure entertainment we step into a vicious circle.<\/p>\n

Stop the \u201cTheory Junking\u201d<\/h2>\n

If you don\u2019t truly apply what you read, then why are you reading it at all?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have asked myself this question many times. The answer made me realize that\u2014in the area of personal growth\u2014theory that is not put to practice has absolutely no value.<\/p>\n

What is worse is the self-deception that comes with being a theory junkie. There is a sense of accomplishment that makes you feel really good. You are excited that you have found relevant information that inspires you. Just by processing this information you already feel a lot more qualified to tackle the problem. You are now stronger, smarter and a lot wiser than before.<\/p>\n

In reality, nothing has changed. You\u2019re still the same person, facing the same old problems like before.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At this stage, I was always confronted with two options. Either I wrote down what I had learned and gave my very best to implement it. Or I wrote a note about it or saved it as a bookmark, which is a recipe for failure<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Obsessed<\/p>\n

If you are an information junkie something else will come along your path. Believe me. Something that seems even more effective. And if the problem is not daunting enough, one never spends another thought about putting the theory to practice. In fact, one already has learned about a dozen other issues that need to be addressed.<\/p>\n

Less is more<\/h3>\n

The amount of information that you are able to process is secondary. What really matters is if you are able to find the right information that you can put into practice. Practicing and truly mastering the guidelines of one book is by far more effective than just reading about the different approaches that are described in 5, 10 or even 20 books.<\/p>\n

Be persistent<\/h3>\n

If you find something that is relevant, stick to it. Digest it. Practice<\/em> it.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re able to make a change in your life depends a lot on your ability to be persistent. The information you uncover is a tool handcrafted for you. It lies in the nature of a tool that it needs to be applied in order to effect a change. Otherwise, it is just a fancy tool.<\/p>\n

The person that collects tools just for the sake of having a shiny tool collection is not able to build anything that is of importance<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Relevance is King<\/h3>\n

Clever marketing works like this: first it grabs your attention, shows you that you have a big problem, then it offers you a fancy solution \u201cfor only $27.\u201d<\/p>\n

The same applies to information junking. There is far too much information out there that desperately tries to make you realize how many problems you have. Turn the situation around. Don\u2019t be the one who seeks information for the sake of entertainment. Seek relevant solutions to your problems. If something is not relevant, think twice if you want to concern yourself with it. You most likely will end up with irrelevant information that is never applied.<\/p>\n

Be a practitioner<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s not enough to only have the mindset<\/em> of a practitioner. You need to live it.<\/p>\n

With everything you learn, you need to ask yourself if and how you can implement it in your life. Remember the last time something excited you so much that you took immediate action? This is the practical mindset that needs to be encouraged.<\/p>\n

Whenever and wherever you discover relevant solutions, make sure that a pen and notepad is at hand. Take notes. Develop your own creative spin of that which is presented. Find and write down a strategy that details how you are going to implement what you have discovered.<\/p>\n

But most important of all, make it a habit of executing the strategy. <\/p>\n

Do you sometimes find yourself to indulge a little too much in theory without putting it to practice?<\/p>\n
