The 70/20/10 tactic

Researchers interviewed successful and effective people to discover how they learned to become successful. They found that:

• 70% of their learning was from the experiences they had.
• 20% was from other people.
• 10% was from books and courses.

We often go through experiences mindlessly. We move from one place to another and don't remember how we got there. We interact mindlessly with other people. However, we can only learn from our experiences if we are present in them.
