1. Focus 2. Directedness (red pill of learning) 3. Feedback 4. Constant experiment once you reach the limits of progress

[@kevinpatel6602]

Drill, retrieval, retention,by deeper learning ( intuition)

[@memegazer]

You can skp step two if you are not red pilled. Bc the steps will remain the same.

[@tytalks4214]

I have a comment directed towards the feedback portion: When I was a teenager I had a wrestling coach at my local mma gym . This dude was WAY harder on me on me than anyone else was; almost bringing me to tears one day when drilling shots. I only realized years later that there was nothing wrong with the shots I was doing. He just knew he could teach me. He had seen potential in me and knew he could instill something. Although I was traumatized at the time and thought I was being singled out; I still have consistently flawless wrestling because of that and it’s not conscious. He was much harder on me than everyone else was, he knew he could push me and it would have a positive impact. He also knew there were others he couldn’t have done that towards. There have been times when I’m out of shape and haven’t trained in forever and have managed to outwrestle high level grapplers/wrestlers on single days I would just decide to go train in both BJJ/Wrestling. I did everything pretty well on a basic level and when I performed damn near flawlessly he told me something like “ that’s good enough”

Hey, just wanted to share the Gospel that all men need, the Bible says all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) this means we all deserve death and separation from a perfect and holy God. But God did not leave us for dead, He sent His only begotten Son to die in yours and my place, so that anyone who believes in Him and repents of sin will be saved from separation from God, and have eternal life! I urge you please put your faith in Jesus Christ and follow Him, He promises to save all who cry out to Him and have a humble heart. We arent guaranteed another day so we must seek Him today while He may be found. 🙏

WRONG. Praise is amazing and motivated me so much. I can’t be THE exception 😆

[@ebrelus7687]

getting the same praise lowest value of the praise with time and it doesn't motivate the same but if you achieve something but don't get rewards sometimes it resets the motivation boost from praise it's important to use the motivation to start next effort or if you pause it will be soon gone while you will need to find the boost to start harder way ofc there are people using just discipline as if you get rid of distractions and alternatives you simply start do thing and your brain just follows as that's what it's made to do but reward is a weaker booster than fear of loosing

[@No-onezy]

This was really useful! I am really considering buying his book or listen to an analysis of it. I have a question: Regarding the research that went into this video, did you look at some of the work by Angela Duckworth? She wrote a book, called "Grit" which delves into a similar topic called "deliberate practice".

[@leavonfletcher4197]

This explains the great saxophonist Charlie Parker. The story goes that he was in an improvisation contest and forgot where he was in the song. The drummer took the cymbal off and threw it at his feet, signaling him to leave the stage. He vowed to "head back to the shed" studying up to 15 hours per day. When he went back a year later, he was a completely different player.

[@perryfrimpongmensah3710]

I disaagree that concepts maps are inefficient for preparing for an exam (ok well it depends on if we are talking review of already studied info or not). Concept mapping when done right gives you a mental model with which you can navigate the topic in a logical, intuitive manner. By doing this you make the information waaaaay stickier, because you can arrive at conclusions just by logic even if you were to forget certain details things. If you THEN couple it with free recall *chefs kiss*. Good concept map is the grounds for effective free recall, and if free recall is just done by rote it also becomes ineffecient If you are in a time crunch, do use a concept map and get the main logic down first, then every new thing you learn in the topic will slot into the framework you built, which will make the information much easier to navigate when you then start to free recall TLDR: Make sure you have a concept map before you use free recall

FOCUS: Follow One Cours Until Successful

[@ΣήθΔειμος]

Not sure if anyone might have already mentioned this, but I think there's a strong possibility of Van Gogh having something of a savant-like ability. I wouldn't like to speculate on the exact aetiology, especially with complicating variables such as his consumption of absinthe, but there clearly was some kind of neurological dysfunction. In the piece of art you mention in particular, rather than merely being inspired by hallucinatory or aberrant perceptual experiences, I'm instead reminded of a phenomenon sometimes seen both with schizophrenia and temporal lobe epilepsy, whereby a strong alteration in one's sense of saliency occurs, often so profound as to be felt by the individual as possessing an almost or even outright mystical quality. If I try to imagine myself in his position, observing the sky, and how I personally might be so inspired as to create from that what he achieved with the piece, it seems plausible to me from the particular aesthetic qualities it displays that it could be the product o a deeply heightened sense of saliency,; the associated hyperfocus allowing for an almost expanded state of consciousness in which perception of pattern (the "flowing" of the sky) functions at a level inaccessible to ordinary consciousnes, being that one's attention and the finite capacities of executive function - ordinarily - are necessarily more evenly spread out across and thus limited in each of the multifarious domains of awareness and cognition required of our basic functioning in such a complex environment of that of the world we find ourselves in and to be surrounded by.

[@ΣήθΔειμος]

As a fellow fan of Donald Hoffman I'm sure you'll readily appreciate this hypothesis of a heightened state of awareness as opposed to some more illusory/distorted/cognitively deprecated hallucinatory state. Oh and if you've never seen it, I really must insist you watch this video featuring neurologist V. S. Ramachandran and a patient with temporal lobe epilepsy whose seizures induce intense mystical experiences which over time have increasingly led to a more pervasive hyper-religiosity.. Truly fascinating: : kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3rMeqZ6ftB3qsk

Directness is a big one. It's easy to fall into a path of least resistance with an expectation of passively absorbing information with some weird trick, Like wallowing in tutorial hell instead of getting started working on a coding project. Or doing the occasional SRS software without integrating it into a greater language learning plan. But the rule above all is to maintain active learning. Residue of thought and all that.

[@connorschmidt5945]

Huh. I've always lived by the philosophy that you should understand things from a meta perspective before you commit to them, this way you don't have to rely on pure guessing. Ideally then the goal would be to develop a meta-theory for any skill or subject before even beginning to work on it. This will help guide your development and has the added bonus of being refine-able every time you encounter an obstacle your theory cannot overcome. Great video! love the content.

[@jamesmccloud7535]

Can you elaborate on this? I don't quite understand

[@Whaddif_]

10:08 “ praise is not useful for students, because praise, if it doesn’t have any information a student can use to improve, it has a demotivating effect” does this imply that praise can be beneficial, as long as it continues to provide working feedback? i say this bc it’s just natural to want to praise a student when they accomplish something, but I myself have felt the demotivating factor of being praised & do not want that for any potential student of mine

Hey Adrian you need to consider using another medium in selecting winners for your book give aways... Instagram is a platform that keeps you distracted and unable to focus and begin the journey of learning like the video states. What is the fascination with a platform that dominates the attention of most people. I understand it might generate new followers which generate more income but my friend all your doing is giving false hope.. social media platforms don’t create creativity nor motivate positively it numbs the herd that is todays society.

[@metamorphosis_77]

I was thinking about that. I will test a different strategy in the next video.

[@EnvelopeOfficial]

I'm trying to learn playing a videogame at world champ level, but the advices here are hard to apply, the van Gogh one is perhaps the most fitting one, but it seems that what I need would be a stronger neurological basis for faster reflexes and my efforts in developing this feel like trying to grow wings ... I have also spent my life improving my meta learning with many successes but here I stumbled upon something which is at a whole other level of learning a language or playing an instrument, the videogames' professional scene in fact is dominated by people who have both talent and experience, experience alone doesn't make up for the lack of a perfect predisposition for a particular game. I'm on my way to prove the opposite, but here perhaps I'm tackling an aspect that Young hasn't taken in consideration. Any thoughts from anyone?

[@MikePeiman]

Just an off the cuff response because I respect the challenge you've undertaken - what I think you're pointing towards (I don't think you articulated your challenge that clearly) is the concern that perhaps you just aren't "cut out for it", like you don't have the inborn aptitude, skill, propensity, neurology for that particular game or level of gameplay. I think this may be true, and while great things, extraordinary things are possible through dedicated effort, I know human beings have limits as well. Breaking those limits can sometimes break us. But having said that, here are a few ideas, do let me know your thoughts on this and if you've explored these strategies: 1. Intensive exercise, like CrossFit - this really does produce a significant hormonal change. You will likely lose performance for a period of adjustment, but gain in the longterm 2. Fasting - like a 10-day juice fast, or water fast. Or alternately, similarly, full ketogenic diet. Different approaches, but both can produce great clarity of mind 3. Neurogenesis through supplementation: Lion's Mane mushroom has the most research support here, but there are other natural supplements, and pharma nootropics that may help. Obviously be careful, as you can cause longterm disruptions in biochemical balance 4. Magic mushrooms - psilocybin. Try both microdosing, and flood dosing. Try gaming while on a flood dose; you may gain some new perception and insight, unlock something. On the other hand, microdosing this can provide a heightened awareness and clarity of mind also. I hear the same for LSD, but have not tried that. Good luck, I'd be glad to hear your thoughts and experiences.

[@EnvelopeOfficial]

@@MikePeiman Nice one Mike, they are good advices, I still haven't tried a consistent nootropic supplements regime, but I tried the others in various forms and they do help. Although it seems to me that overall the difficulty lies in managing a super healthy routine all the time and that's just really hard. Also I noticed that sleep is the most important factor and I've done various experiments with it, but it's a skill of its own to master your sleep and I'm still working on it. Also there's one more important thing to consider, in this videogame you cannot just win through personal accomplishments, it's a team game and that's a whole other kettle of fish to deal with!

[@tlowry3689]

@@seetsamolapo5600 its a concept popularised by Carl Jung that describes meaningful, but non causal coincidences. like when you're thinking of a person and they just happen to give you a call on that same day. Personally my view is that you were probably thinking of that person at a very low level of consciousness on most other days and immediately forget about that thought but on the day that they call you don't forget for obvious reasons.

[@ebrelus7687]
