Take what you need
Let's quote the book megaliving:
"Do not take personal development books as gospel. Read them and take whatever useful ideas you need. Every book has at least one tool or strategy of benefit. Take what you need and what works for you and discard what doesn't suit you."
So, you can take learning from any reading, and you can also discard what you don't feel as useful. Another thing I'd say is go and try something, if it doesn't click for you, try something else. For instance, maybe you can do a whole course on something, but if it doesn't click for you, you might not learn as much as if it really did click. And if you try something for let's say a month, and you do not feel improvement or it's not working out at all, it may be because it doesn't click for you.
