Default Knowledge

This thread was started by mentioning that there's lot to read and little to implement. My point is that if one looks closely, there are only a few limited principles to follow and implement. All material, books , forums etc that we are going through will only put forward this message in different ways, elaborating and explaining in different styles and giving different examples. So after a point in time you'll become bored, if you don't find anything significantly different. So therefore what i do is this : I pick an attribute that i want to develop. Eg lets say courage. Then having already read a lot about it, i refer back to my notes or simply recollect them. Then i set goals like, i want to achieve this much courage in these many days. Next step is to make an action plan, design exercises. For eg i might try doing something which i was really afraid of in the past. Then if i need more help, i research more - refer books, go to the net etc. This way i ensure that i only read as much as i require and two, i implement and try something before going for more information. I think, in this way, knowledge and application can go hand in hand.
