What Does It Mean To Be Teachable

Here are some thoughts on what iteans to be teachable.

When You Don't Understand or Are Overwhelmed with Information

• You ask questions
• If something is over your head, you seek guidance from a guide or mentor to learn everything they know
• You don't consider specially talented people as magical, but as people who put in the time, commitment, and paid the price for becoming outstanding
• You view extraordinary talent as something that you can attain if you want - if you are willing to pay the price to get there

New Information

Your relationship to new knowledge and learned ng is

• You always look for mind expansion from serious books and other readings.
• You believe in lifelong learning
• You have the humility to know that the more you know, the more you appreciate how little you know about everything

Curiosity and Creativity

• You are curious because you don't make assumptions that you already know
• You easily change me up with new ideas because you have an open mind
• You are not filled with envy from others' accomplishments, but instead, you see them as an opportunity for learning

Coaches And Mentors

• You seek out coaches and mentors actively, as you think you can learn more from good teachers rather than by yourself
• You are able to assess if somebody has more skill than you. If you do, you want to learn from them

Collaboration

• You understand that you can learn more with others than by yourself, and that you can get more accomplished when you collaborate rather than go solo.
