Book Description

August 21, 2007
Attempting to better themselves--learn new skills, break bad habits--people read books, attend seminars, take training courses. But in spite of what they sincerely believe are their best efforts, their behavior doesn't change. It's an endless source of frustration for organizations and individuals.
 
Because people who have mastered learning are free to be creative and make big things happen, Ken Blanchard takes a strong personal interest in this problem. In Know Can Do! he and his co-authors Paul J. Meyer and Dick Ruhe use the fable format Blanchard made famous to lay out a straightforward method for making sure you actually use what you know.
This engaging audiobook teaches you how to avoid information overload by learning less more, not more less; adjust your brain's filtering system to learn up to 100 times more than before; ignite your creativity and resourcefulness with Green Light Thinking, master what you've learned using spaced repetition, and more.
 
At last, an answer to the question "Why don't I do what I know I should do?"

From AudioFile

This attention-grabbing lesson explains why most people don't put their best intentions and plans into practice. Using a mentor-pupil narrative, the authors say that personal change doesn't happen for three reasons--an overwhelming overload of options, negative filters that denigrate good ideas, and poor follow-up. Narrator Mark Barbolak reads the dialogue between an author and an entrepreneur with innocent clarity. His narration style is an excellent fit with Ken Blanchard's trademark simplicity and accessible teaching style. Barbolak's natural enunciation and impeccable phrasing will help people at all levels of sophistication absorb and savor the ideas. His optimism and vocal personality will promote openness to the authors' intuitive action plan: provide clarity and structure regarding the desired change, give steady support and consideration, and ensure accountability with consistent follow-up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blanchard does it again!, October 7, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Know Can Do!: How to Put Learning Into Action (Audio CD)
I must confess I am a Blanchard fan. The Situational Leadership, One Minute Manager, and other series are concise, helpful, and easy to put into action. Know Can Do gives one the tools to put knowledge into action. Many people are constantly looking for the next best thing instead of really putting an effort into what they already know. The author, using a story, of course, shows how to learn, review, and apply learning. By learning and reviewing a few things instead of shallowly learning a lot of things, you will accomplish more real change. all real accomplishment comes from focus, and this book will help internalize that concept.

Blanchard books are great on CD as well and will yield more return than the morning radio show. Plus, now Amazon is giving better prices on audiobooks than ever before!! A win/win.
