Learning Can Be Much Easier If You Follow This 5-Step Approach


Learning a new concept can be a rewarding experience, yet it is frustrating when new information simply floats around in your head without sticking. Often times, we are forced to read a book repeatedly just to get the information to store in our memory.

Learning should not be simply about forced memory, and it should not be a difficult task. The mind is an amazing tool. Luckily, there are powerful methods that can assist us in truly grasping difficult concepts. The ADEPT Method for Learning is a practical approach to improving your brainpower. Incorporate this approach into your way of thinking and use it to learn everything with ease.1

Start with an Analogy

A simple trick to improve how we learn is to compare it to something we already know. For example, how would you explain the function of a neuron (otherwise known as a brain cell)? What analogy would you use to explain how a neuron functions? How would you compare it to something the learner is familiar with?

Let’s give this analogy a shot: Neurons are like transportation systems. They carry neurotransmitters (we will refer to them as information) from one neuron to another, similar to how transportation systems transport people from one city to another. Read full article here

Why Some People Are More Creative Than Others

Would you label yourself a creative person? Do you think creativity is something we are born with? Creativity is more than the simple left versus right brain.

Creativity and learning takes place when we are able to connect new knowledge with knowledge we were already familiar with. Creativity is something we can all develop. In fact, it has been scientifically proven that creativity can be cultivated. Prior to the last couple of years, I used to think creativity was something you were born with. I believed one of the myths of creativity and used it as an excuse. Do you associate with any of these common myths about creativity? Common myths: 1 You are born with it. You have to be right-brained. It falls into your lap. You’ve got to be a little mad. Everyone has fell victim to at least one of these myths, but anyone can be creative, not just the privileged few. Let’s take a look at how some people embrace this

F*ck Ordinary!

A re you in need of an instant jolt of motivation? If you are, you have found the right place. Let me tell you about a crazy and inspirational man by the name C.T. Fletcher. He is a bodybuilder who died (flatlined) 3 times during open-heart surgery, was told he will never lift another weight again, and is the last person you would expect to provide  deep  inspirational advice. So, get ready for some vulgar, yet  philosophical  advice inspired by a man and his motherf*ck!ng magnificent obsession to prove everyone wrong! A point of caution before proceeding… C.T. Fletcher speaks his mind and uses language that might not be appropriate for children or those of you who are  weak . So, if this is you, change the title to ‘Be Ordinary’ and stop reading!

I told your a$$ to grow… now GROW!” C.T. offers us a metaphorical and d
