The "separation method" is a proven way of getting all the facts available for making a decision. Have you ever heard of it? Here are the three actions you need to take: 1. Separate the facts from mere information. 2. Separate the truth from idle gossip. 3. Separate the good from the bad.

But that is not all—there is more. Three more steps are needed. They are: 1. Separate the important from the unimportant. 2. Separate the relevant from the irrelevant. 3. Separate the usable from the unusable.

This may sound simple—but organizing what you learn adds accuracy to your thinking. This is part of the road to reach your goals in life.
