Negative emotions destroy your learning abilities.
Bring a positive attitude! Think about the benefits of your learning. Get excited.
Try to create fun. Enjoy!
2/ "As your body moves, your brain grooves."
Be active!
ā¢ jog
ā¢ walk
ā¢ swim
ā¢ cycle
ā¢ exercise
ā¢ play team sports
ā¢ pick your favorite activity
The movement puts your brain in active mode. So you'll learn faster!
3/ "Learning is not a spectator sport."
Consuming knowledge isn't enough.
When you read, watch, or listen you're passive. It won't stick.
"Activate" the knowledge. You achieve it when you:
ā¢ talk
ā¢ write
ā¢ teach
ā¢ practice
ā¢ implement
It'll activate your memory.
4/ "If you fight for your limitations, you get to keep them."
Get rid of that fixed mindset. It kills your potential.
If you believe you can't, you'll do everything to be right.
Start believing that you can. Do everything to be right!
You'll be right either way. Choose!
5/ "Your mind is like a parachute. It only works when it's open."
You can't learn what you believe you already know.
Apply beginner's mind. Follow your curiosity.
You'll quickly fall in love with learning.
6/ "There is no such thing as a good or bad memory. There is only trained and untrained."
Memory is fundamental for learning. We learn by linking with what we already know. The more you know and remember, the easier it becomes to expand your knowledge.
Too many people believe they have a bad memory. The problem is elsewhere.
They never train memory. By activating imagination and visualization, we boost memory.
The more we practice, the better it gets.
That's a wrap!
To learn faster and better:
ā¢ have fun
ā¢ be active
ā¢ train your memory
ā¢ teach what you know
ā¢ apply beginner's mind
ā¢ apply a growth mindset
