What would your superpower be?

I think you can guess mine ;P

[necbranduc]

I actually liked the analogy of "let the waves roll in", even before you tried to disprove it. You're a cool guy, Daniel.

A professor of mine suggested that taking physical notes (writing) helps the brain recall information, as it spent more time and effort in the process of writing the key points down. I think it helps me.

I found this video deeply inspirational! I log on my coursera account and realized I had completed that course about 2 years ago. I've totally forgotten about it though, so I decided to give it another shot. The "no need of genius envy" is something I really have myself, I'm frequently comparing to others for their accomplishments and usually minimizing my own. I hope to be a more positive person with hard work!

[BarryMorisse]

Agreed. This course is fantastic - really changed my world-view. It should be a pre-requisite in schools and universities.

I think my superpower is, like if I want to learn anything, I learn anyhow, no matter howsoever hard it is, event its some boring topic or subject, but I just need that hunger to learn. I really liked that thing you said that no one becomes successful overnight but every small steps count.

Love not needing to put it on ×1.5 speed with Aussie youtubers. Time is money, keep up the fast talk 👍

[ghazanfarabbas]

Well I didn't take the coursera course but I read your article two times and one point you mentioned 'limit the search space' gave me the ultimate super power by increasing my productivity 500x with accuracy and effectiveness.

[FiddleWellness]

Doing it in one day is counterproductive to learning!

[truthseekerbeast]

You are always making my life better in many ways Daniel, Thanks for all your efforts

[danielcarney]

Is that basically the learning how to learn you do in most college courses .

[saistudent_sachinprabhu]

That was insightful! Love your channel 💛 I have been following your channel for some time.Great content ☺️ lots of love from India 🤗💛

[benjaminsejdic]

Dear Daniel, great video you summed all up what I need.

P.S: Einstellung means Attitude ;)

[salymakhmedov]

I was literally thinking about this and was going to ask you how you learned.

[tykepope]

A great resource for learning how to learn is the book “A mind for numbers” by Barbara Oakley
Edit: the coursera course is by the same person lol awesome stuff

@Dainel Bourke The link you have when I click on it does not work?

[taor]

Nice video, I think I will try out the Pomodoro, and thanks for summarizing the courses. Just wonder what note taking app do you use?

[cliffordjules]

Thank you so much I was really looking to find out how to learn: how to learn.

[eduardonascimento]

Thank you for your ponint of view about all this Knowledge. All this is very important for who needs to dive in a new word of complex information like ML and DS.

Daniel, I had some questions. How were you able to complete the course in one day, are you superhuman? Also, if one has a very busy schedule, what exercises do you recommend him to stay fit?
