I would say set a professional goal and align what you're learning to that goal.

Learning new things is great but learning and applying what you're learning is better

Agreed. Applying the things I'm learning is tricky in my current role but I would like to work as independent consultant in the future.

I’ve worked at AT&T as a sales consultant for 6 years and 8 months where we prospect, uncover, and close on leads. I’ve used Salesforce for the past 4 years during my tenure.
