#learning #productivity #knowledge-management  > Is this Relentless pursuit of information leading us towards our goal of actually being better music producers? or is it just a cleverly disguised form of procrastination? - Tash discusses the trap of perpetual learning without application in music production. - Being labeled as an eternal student can hinder the creation and sharing of finished music. - Easy access to knowledge leads to excessive consumption without active implementation. - The key is to apply acquired knowledge rather than accumulate it endlessly. - The gap between knowledge and skill is bridged through active application. - Three strategies to transition from passive learning to active application: 1. Set specific goals and learn only what is necessary for a particular project. 2. Limit information intake to prevent excessive consumption and prioritize practical usage. 3. Share completed work to receive feedback and gain a sense of completion. - Music represents not just knowledge, but also how it inspires and connects with others. - The focus should shift from being information consumers to creators of meaningful experiences.
