Part 2 of 4: Investigate and understand

1. Decide what's most important. If you decide you want to do something that is difficult or complex, the first thing you want to know is what is most important. What is the crux of the matter? That is where you will have to focus all your attention.
   • For example, if you want to learn figure skating, the most important thing you need to learn is skating.
   • If you want to open a restaurant, it is important to be such a good cook that the customers keep coming (at least if you are the chef) or to develop the skills to run such a business (if you are the owner).
   • If you want to move to another country, the most important thing you can do is find a job in that country.
2. Break the task into smaller sub-tasks. Once you have discovered what is most important in your job, you will have to figure out which skills are involved. This is your second focus or, in some cases, what you will have to bring in first to get to the main goal.
   • In the case of the skating example, the special moves you need to learn and being able to skate to the beat of the music or a particular routine are the secondary part.
   • In the case of opening a restaurant, running a business and adhering to health regulations are of secondary importance.
   • In the case of the emigration example, things like learning a language, dealing with other cultural norms, and getting through the emigration procedure are of secondary importance.
3. Eliminate anything that is not necessary. Before you continue, it is good to look at what you want to do and find out which parts are not strictly necessary. These can be general things or something that others feel you should do, but that are really unnecessary and can distract you from your goal, or waste your time and money.
   • To take the skating example once again; things such as a suit or very luxurious skates are not necessary. Yes, it is true that this is common in figure skating, but it is no more than ostentation.
   • In the example of the restaurant, you could say that buying a whole collection of extra kitchen gadgets or designer furniture is not really necessary. Gadgets serve no purpose if you can do the same thing in the same amount of time without them, and good food goes way beyond fancy tables to impress customers.
   • If you are going to emigrate, it is not necessary to wear certain clothes or listen to the local pop music.
4. Set your goals. Decide how far you want to go for this task. Do you want to become a true master? Is there a certain level of success that you can be satisfied with? You will have to know roughly where you want to go, otherwise you will feel without direction and you will soon give up.
5. Determine the skills you need. Once you have identified what you want to achieve, think further about the skills you will need to do it. If you want to achieve something in sports, you will probably have to work on your fitness. For goals in the labor market, you will work on skills that are of interest to your future employer. If you are going to emigrate, you will have to learn to speak the language, etc.
6. Make a plan for all the steps you will take. Make a schedule of what you want to do and when or in what order. Having some sort of strategy makes it much easier for you to complete the task. Also look around to see if you can find more information, as discussed below.

Part 3 of 4: Teaching the necessary skills

1. Find resources about these skills. Look for good quality sources of information about the skills you need to learn. These must be well known and provide correct information about the subject you are looking for. This will give you a better idea of ​​what to do and how.
   • If you are going to emigrate, it is important to check the official government websites. For things like sports, check the official websites of a sports association. Many hobbies and crafts have dedicated online communities that can help you.
2. Try to find a mentor. Find someone who knows everything you want to learn or achieve. They often have information that you really will not be able to find anywhere on the internet. Asking someone nicely is often the beginning of a good, friendly relationship.
3. Consider training. In some cases, it will be much better to just get an education in the topic you want to learn more about. If you find yourself unable to progress, that may be an option. This does not necessarily mean that you have to go to an educational institute, but it can also mean that you are apprenticed to someone for a period of time.
4. Take one step at a time. Don't expect whatever you try to be done in a day. Complex or unique skills are complex and unique because they take a long time to learn. Stick to your goal and take it step by step. You'll get there eventually.
5. Stay focused. If you really want to learn something, you will have to be able to focus on that goal, at least for some time. Do not jump from one idea to another and then be surprised that you have no control over all those things that you want to be able to do. Skills require a dedicated learner. Focus and you will be there before you know it.
6. Stay determined to achieve your goal. Do not take the pressure off the boiler. This is exactly why people fail to achieve what they want to achieve. Yes, sometimes it can't be easy to keep up, or the boring side of what you want to achieve gets in your way, but then you'll just have to get up and move on. You will love the person you became at the end of the day.
