Ok so, I've been called a "fast learner" (a compliment), fast reader and fast speaker (definitely not at as compliment) my whole life and as on my end: I'm genuinely just an impatient person who has had to find ways to get through information fast, or I'd get too bored and stop learning at all. I don't think there's any secrets to fast learning, but I definitely think everyone can improve their speed of absorbing information by changing and re-shuffling the way they approach it. This is what works for me xx

The prevalent problem with studying is that people have the expectation that quantity is better that quality. You are expected to take pages and pages of notes, many of which contains useless fillers, and are expected to memorize them all. I'm glad that you've made this video to show us a better method, Liz.

I totally agree with this! Many times you could make a 2-3 pages into a couple of scentences to easen the subject😂 but no, have to write a LOT for some reason. Thank god I tend to explain things from a lot of different angles,the problem is when the subject is limited and you can only explain it in ONE way…how can you prolong it without it getting boring or sound pretentious with wordfillers? 😅

as someone with ADHD, i've been always describes as the kid who "has potential but just isn't trying hard enough". i have extremely low self esteem because of it, and instead of learning being something that should be enjoyable or something that should thrive out of my own curiosity, it became strictly about impressing others, like my teachers or my parents. learning became about winning their approval and validating me as a capable person, because at one point i used to think (and tbh i still kinda do) that not doing well in school= i have absolutely no value as a person. i'm starting to realise i wasn't doing it for myself but rather to make others proud, and in the process i lost my sense of self. i think i'm finally starting to let that ideology go, haven't reached there yet, but i'm slowing getting there.

TLDR (because i’m adding this to my notes) 1. Safety Netting: Making sure you have the reasons on why you want to learn something Questions to ask: what are we talking about? why is it important? how important is this? what can i do when i learn this? what can i NOW do even after i learned this? where can i find further knowledge? these makes sure you have a more realistic and calculated expectation and reduce disappointment when you feel like you haven’t learned enough more realistic scenario like in lectures: what we’re talking about is…? what you actually meant by that is…? so when this happens, this happens? 2. Focusing on the Core Basics Making sure that the rules that are SO simple that teachers and educators forget about them because they think that people learning about something already know about the core basics these are the things that can make learning faster as this is the backbone of what you’ll need to continue to learn further ask yourself “what are the core basics i can teach myself?” things to ask: what are the things you do every day/week without fail what’s essential here what distinguishes the pro from the amateur how fast can i learn this then focus deep on the basics progress: - identify a core skill - test the core skill in different contexts - find where i can’t use the core skill (basically the limits) - strong core basics means better and faster learning later 3. Categorizing Information - Safety net: the logical backbone. Everything relies on this - Core basics: Significant and Immediate - Admin: Hard for me and not that much of a priority - Good for you: You don’t really care and aren’t important slowed read the information and slot the main topics in the categories and prioritize the safety net and core basics 4. Jumpy Learning don’t learn the things in the order given to you, learn them by how interested you are in it. this keeps your attention and motivation high and avoid early dull parts.

*Safety Netting --> Priming your brain for learning* - Giving it the space and context optimal for learning - Ask: - "What are we talking about?" Answer it preferably simply, drawing experiences and knowledge that are already there. - "Why and how should I care?" Makes you understand its importance. - "What can I do when I learn this? What can't I do even though I've learnt this?" Basically understand the connections & limitations related to this thing you're learning. - "Who and where are the experts?" Helps you know the sources of information you can use to learn this topic. *Core Basics --> Understanding the very basics* - Involves studying the very basics (especially the ones often skipped) of the topic so you have a good a foundation in learning new ideas - How to - Core Basics: - Identify a core skill - Test the core skill in many different contexts - Find where I can't use the core skill (the limits) - Strong core basics --> fast learning later *Admin & Good for You --> Actual studying* - Speed-read/learn and divide things into Information Categories - Safety Net (Logical backbone, AKA context) - Core Basics (Significant & immediate, AKA stuff you already learned + easy for you to learn) - Admin (Hard for me & less important, AKA "I'll learn this later") - Good for You (Don't care & unimportant *Jumpy Learning & Strategic Drowning* Jumpy Learning --> Learning non-linearly - Not studying things based on the order given, but based on your level of interest. - Helps you preserve motivation & attention, which makes things faster & longer (while still enjoyable) Strategic Drowning (already discussed in other videos) - Tendency to drown (perform not-so-great) first, before performing exceptionally well

Your brain is more primed to absorb information if you are interested, its definitely good advice to try and cultivate an interest in whatever you're learning. Might also be helpful to rethink about passion. In my opinion a passion for something is something you *make* not something you have or find.

As someone who also has ADHD asking myself good questions might actually be the single best skill that I have ever developed. My two favorites are "how could I use this?" and "what could I learn here?" *"could" should be used rather than "should" as it elicits far more creative thinking. I have been able to use this ability to immediately see better results with ANYTHING. Whether it's studying, social skills, and even situational awareness. Due to my condition I am constantly lost in thought but just the other day I was walking home from work and decided to ask myself questions to stimulate my awareness like "what's going on?" and I was instantly mindful and attentive to my environment the ENTIRE walk home. Using this skill I am also able to strategically manipulate my interest levels and get into flow learning practically anything. It supercharges my creative problem solving skills, immediately grants me a growth mindset, and makes my focus airtight. Research even suggests that it's the best way to develop your intuition. Give it a try!

Wow, Elizabeth, I've been studying books, watching RU-vid videos, Ted Talks, and have probably logged about 150 hours since November, 2022, and your video had by far the most value for me out of all of it! Thank you for taking the time to think deeply about this, analyze it, and share it in a powerful and concise way with us. I've always been a passionate and hungry learner of things like books/literature, words, psychology & human behavior, Internet marketing, poker, guitar playing and songwriting, and other things that put a bee in my bonnet. I have always been able to make progress rapidly because I pretty much shut out the world and focused on reading, taking lessons from experts, and gained the knowledge I felt I needed NO MATTER WHAT. People have said I get obsessed with things I'm interested in, which I suppose is true from their perspective. I view it as me being extremely impatient to make progress as quickly as possible because I want to, e.g., play guitar like Don Felder or Larry Carlton NOW. lol In late Nov '22, OpenAI released ChatGPT 3.0 and I've always been into tech and an early adopter. I stumbled upon Midjourney first, and I was so amazed, mesmerized, and excited about what I could do with it by learning how to talk to it by using natural language prompts. I can write, I can enroll people over the phone into $8k to $30k coaching programs without ever meeting them in person, I can write a pretty good song and play all the instruments and arrange and produce it, on Soundcloud Reidmoto...if you're curious. BUT I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN WEAK AT THE GRAPHIC ARTS! In spite of studying Adobe Illustrator (drawing that cat was so frustrating for me!), trying hard to learn Photoshop, 3D modeling, etc., I just have never been able to make a visually pleasing and aesthetically beautiful and well-designed web page or marketing page. I want it done right and know it's so important, so I've always chosen to pay real graphics designers with an eye and the brain for design. Midjourney may have changed much of that for me and I've learned how to harness its power to create images I really like and think are at least not so ugly and amateurish looking anymore. I'm also learning ChatGPT, and starting on Python so I can develop my own app for a stock trading strategy I think will work well with AI, so that's part of the reason for my motivation to learn how to learn better. The other reason, is that though I studied Midjourney for hours and hours a day consistently, I was having so much trouble getting a solid grasp of the fundamentals, the important concepts that have to be mastered, as you so clearly shared with us. I'm sure you've heard of Josh Waitzkin, who wrote the book, "The Art of Learning." He says exactly what you said about getting the foundational concepts down first, practice them, and master them before you move on. He was a child prodigy chess player, then because a world champion Tai Chi competitor, and has mastered all kinds of other things in record time. I watched a YT interview with Tim Ferris, and Josh is so friggin' INTERESTING and SMART and has taken speed learning to whole new levels! I'm going to send this now because I don't want to risk losing it, and I know I've taken up a lot of digital real estate on your page, but I thought you might be interested in my story, because I finally figured out why I was struggling to learn Midjourney, which I'll share when I continue and finish this very long thank you post.

Having spent, let's just say, plennnnnty of time in post-university classes, and a fair amount of time teaching too, I'm certain those "very basic questions" are a huge relief and help to both your fellow students and the instructor. Numerous other students are thinking, "Glad she asked that so I didn't have to!" The instructor's trap when teaching is that expertise destroys your intuition about what's simple and what's tough. The student who is humble and brave enough to say, "wait, what is X?" or "so if Y, then Z?" is massively helpful in re-orienting you. If you can find a classmate who will take turns with you asking the "maybe this is a dumb question" questions, so much the better.

Two lesson i want to learn from this video: 1. Learn the core basic, like she said when you understand the core basics of for example electricity you would be better at understanding most of the concepts related to it, like my dad. 2. Pay attention to what you want to pay attention. She said that we all have limited attention spans and when you always force yourself to study the parts that you dont like that attention span diminishes, so for example instead of studying only the specific things im not interesteded in i should keep the attention span going with the activity i like to do.

So true! Learning the basics is so important My peers and I have struggled with professors who skip this part. They assume we already know the basics and just go straight into the details. Because of this, the details go right over your head because you don’t fully understand how it applies to the topic. Great video Elizabeth!

Dear Elizabeth, What you say about core basics is very interesting and so true. In fact, you have inspired me to change one of my teaching tactics. I teach EFL and students struggle with grammar a lot. As I listened to you, I thought " The reason my students don't understand grammar is they don't remember certain core basics about grammar in general, even in their own mother tongue." So, I will start my lessons with reminders of what grammar is, how it works and why we need to study it sometimes.

I am loving to learn more about learning with you, Elizabeth! I've always thought of myself as a fast learner when it comes to learning with a teacher (school and stuff), but I do struggle so much when trying to learn something all by myself. I've tried things like pomodoro and other methods to keep myself focused but even sitting down and start studying has became a chore, even though I want so much to learn whatever I'm trying to learn (the feeling of slow paced get me bored). I will make sure to give a try in your method!

I'm trying to let go at the moment. This doesn't seem like an issue for you, but it's difficult to learn in an environment where you feel like you're not wanted to be in the same space as your peers, feeling isolated, not liked by others. Being an empath, the slightest murmer if I ever speak, or the overall energy I feel from people in my presents is hard to deal with. There are a few genuinely lovely people, but what I find is people seek acceptance by showing off, trying to empress overs by taking the mick and try to put you down, I guess to make themselves feel better! I'm still working on strategies to deal with this by trying to stay focused and learn as much as I can. The problem is, it's like a catch 22, as the more I have negative feelings, the less motivated I am! I'll continue trying regardless.

Yes! Another perk of pushing Admin/Good For You to later in the process (at least in my field) is that the "main" things you might sort of need to know eventually often show up so often you either build curiosity about them until you jump to them, or they just get repeated so much you learn them passively

I'm so glad you talked about something I've always been thinking about. I spent most of my student years thinking that the questions I made in class were stupid, but I really need to understand the foundation or the basis to properly build knowledge on that. On another note, I've also been called intelligent and people wondered how I studied, but the truth is that I would never get tired of stressing the importance of understanding the core structure of the topic and understanding the very basics.

Terrific video, taught me something I didn't know I needed to know. I have always been regarded as intelligent and a fast learner but I have never felt that way. Whenever I reached a difficult area of learning I just muscle through it and thought that was what was expected. I never categorized and analyzed my own learning process effectively but everything you stated here I can recognize in my own process during my most effortless learning topics. I can't wait to try these methods and see how it effects my future learning!

Solid advice thanks! Wish I had thought about learning like this in the past, because I do think your approach makes learning more motivated and effective. You have clearly thought a lot about learning and you have realized a method of working with your mind rather than against it which is the method of learning that basically everyone uses that makes you feel bored and frustrated.

Sounds like a very good approach. The thing I do differently in step 1, though, is to also take notes during lectures, which helps me encode it better through a multi modal approach. This allows me to be able to skim through the reading later as a refresher, as needed. Plus, it keeps my attention from wandering. I can then also jot down any questions that arise. If they are answered further in the lecture, I can add those answers. And, if not, I can ask them at the end of the lecture, either publicly or one on one.

@earth-air-water-fire-aether
It's very well thought and constructed (your video as a whole speaks for itself) and fits a category of learners that in the past were left in the shadows or were open to have their insecurities reinforced and more problems. How you introduced it and worded it all, then used hospital and doctor to reinforce the idea of fast learning. I think it's very effective, it's something that most people in general in the industries I worked in I assume is why they excelled at their jobs and learning, keeping to principles and fully understanding the basics which were the people I always looked up to, and always taught who wanted to learn the areas that can be difficult to understand or see in practice.

Create a knowledge space. Fill it with answers to these questions, often in this order, Who, What, Why, How, Where, and When. If possible, also create a sub-space for Past, Present, and Future. If the knowledge space tends to collapse, support it with associations. That's my take. Thanks for the video.

This is absolutely amaaaaaaazing. Love love lurrrrrrv this. Exactly how my brain works too. It always annoys me when my colleagues make assumptions when explaining things or describing tasks. I work in web development so when things are not well documented it makes things really difficult to pick up. When I see something missing, I always go back to basics and core concepts and add things into the docs to make things easier for junior devs as I know what it's like going into a new company and everyone around you makes assumption that you 'just know' how to find something or 'figure something out'. I'm passionate about teaching how to learn and do things autonomously instead of just information regurgitation and directing juniors without thinking about how they might approach the same task in the future on their own.

I can use every single area “Information Categories” and apply it to this book I’m reading and it makes so much sense now. This is the kinda book about leadership and successful entrepreneur stories but it got to a point where it became a bit redundant so I skipped some pages. It might be the “don’t care, unimportant” section that your mind segregates. The conflict is I get easily distracted and I’m interested in so many things that I wanna cover more than I can handle. If there is a video about that please lead me to it. Excellent work in this video! explaining your mind ain’t easy. I like how you add visuals on top of your narration. Thanks!

It would be great if you made a video where you are using this method and take us through how exactly you would use it to learn a moderately challenging concept. I'm the type of person that finds it hard to learn something without understanding the underling principles (usually in maths/physics), which would always make it a nightmare if I missed something or you are assume to take something at it's face value. It's like learning to integrate an equation, meanwhile being distracted by the fact of what the hell integration even is and why manipulating numbers a certain way actually works, eventually I just learned the hard rules but, I never learned beyond the fact that integration is the area under the curve and differentiation is the rate of change of the curve.

I wish she talked on how to a establish foundation with a proper example. She talked on the importance and what it can do, but her examples were not helpful for me. Personally, I do not like when people give examples but then don’t fully complete it or if it’s a topic most people know about. She talked about physics first then editing and then she put some examples for medical, but again she did not complete it from her own list she provided. I think most people think themselves as a slow learner because they have a hard time remembering connections or “old” information to help with “new” information. The other problem with me is that I do not know how to make connections on a topic I am just learning about. For example Bio would not be so helpful in geology. Yes then might have a few things I can link with one another, but not many that I would feel like I learned so much. I feel I don’t recall as well and if I was learning something new, I would not be sure how to implement the first strategy. Other than answering the who, what, how and other questions, I did not get much out of the first part which she seemed to put more importance on.
