One of the foundational things I teach to all my students inside the Cookbook Writers Academy is the concept of Being a Cookbook Writer. Part of "being a cookbook writer" (who gets their cookbook published) is your habits. And last week we talked all about the habit of cooking, and writing, and using your kitchen as your laboratory. This means that you are most likely either cooking (or baking) and writing a lot during the pre-publication phase of writing a cookbook.
Another foundational part of being a cookbook writer is your willingness to learn new things and to teach yourself new things. And that’s what I want to talk about.
Every day I'm amazed at technology. We have so many opportunities to teach ourselves how to send a newsletter, write a blog, self-publish our cookbooks, run a webinar, set up a sales page, or start a podcast. And as a cookbook writer, there is so much more to learn.
The world is a frontier of knowledge, and our brains have an unlimited capacity to learn. There is so much we can teach ourselves about writing, cooking/baking, or being a cookbook writer.
So how do we get better at... writing? Cooking? Baking? Learning new things? (fill in the blank with whatever you want to teach yourself about)?
Here are 20 ways to teach yourself new things and enhance your learning:
Let's embrace 2020 at the year to teach ourselves something new.
