Practice What We Preach: Building Your Learning Habit

Building Your Learning Habit

Let’s be honest with each other – we’re L&D professionals who spend our days designing learning experiences and advocating for development. But when it comes to our own learning? It somehow always ends up at the bottom of the to-do list.

It’s not that we don’t care.

We’ve got the books saved on our reading list. The podcasts downloaded. The resources bookmarked. Maybe you even grabbed some great recommendations from our resource share chat. But between stakeholder meetings, project deadlines, and everything else demanding our attention, our own development keeps getting pushed to “later.”

The Irony Isn’t Lost on Us

We know learning matters. We champion it for everyone else. We can articulate exactly why continuous learning is critical for staying relevant in this field. But knowing and doing are two different things.

The real question isn’t why we should learn – it’s how we actually make it happen when we’re already stretched thin.

How do I carve out time that doesn’t exist? How do I start without adding more guilt to my plate? How do I turn intentions into habits that actually stick? How do I capture what I’m learning so it doesn’t just disappear?

Let’s Work Through This Together

We’ll talk about practical strategies that fit into real life. Share what’s actually working for people (and what’s crashed and burned). Tackle the barriers that keep tripping us up. And figure out how to prioritize our own growth without the guilt.
