So if you wanna learn you gotta focus Holy shit genius

I also remember our lesson in cognitive psychology. Learning is like encoding some information into your memory. But memory has 3 different levels—sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory. You can sense something without using your attention. But it only stays less than 1 second in your sensory memory. But if you use attention, it can stay longer about 30 seconds in your short-term memory. But if you use attention and relate this information to other informations that were already stored in your long-term memory, it can stay at the long-term memory as well that can last to minutes or hours or days or years.

The key is: connect a new information to other information you've already knew. The more connections, the better. We call this connection as "retrieval paths". Just like going to the park. You can arrive at there more easily if you knew many paths. One path is very difficult. You'll be lost probably. It's the same in our memory. It's easy to encode. It's very difficult to retrieve.

What this man means is that you need to study the new thing, word, piece of knowledge etc and pause every once in a while. You then take the new info inside and turn it into a very vivid imagination. For example: see yourself teaching someone else about it, or using the new info-words-concepts in a conversation. Do it quick, make it focussed and bring it alive. Now it will stick with you as if you really experienced it and can so become a new habit or pattern. I have always worked like this and been teaching this for ten years. Now I know the sience behind it. Love it!

My prof in college told us that our brain works on problems while we’re sleeping. If I was ever stuck on a homework problem I would put it aside and come back to it a day or two later and it was almost always more clear to me

I'm glad I'm not there only one who felt like he said a whole lot without actually saying anything.

Thinking intensely is the basis of all my anxiety lol

[rodrigoelizondo]

Many people didn’t understand the message, he is saying that if you need to learn something new you need to focus on what change is this learning bringing to your life at this precise moment and where do you want to get through these learning. For example im learning how to code and this learning is helping me see the world in a more logical way and my goal for this is to code a program myself. That will 100% improve your learning.

Or in other words: becoming self conscious and doing things consciously.

[joshuathomas]

Ah, that’s why I can’t learn anything from youtube shorts. I mean, except for this.

[drewkanapa]

Adhd me:
Andrew Huberman: "Focus is the entry point."

[sweatdog]

When studying I try (but admittedly haven't made habit yet) some of these things: 1) apply the lesson to a practical problem, which makes it relatable and memorable. 2) get your other senses involved: lavender oil in a misting bottle, calm music in the background, using a chair with a massaging pad/cover. Hell even just standing up while studying can activate your senses to enhance your study.

I have ADHD and notice this especially with guitar. I analyse the part in struggling with and try figure out why. I imagine a sound I would like to produce and figure out steps to get closer to it. I then try variations of movements, not just in my fingers, but in my wrist, arm, shoulder, neck, back etc.

From the outside, it looks like madness. My friend once commented that he was going crazy just listening to me practice the same few notes over 30 minutes 🤣 normally I would agree, but when you're in such a (flow) state, time works differently.

[ianmccann]

That’s why writing in a diary can be extremely helpful. Even annotating books you read when a provocative thought comes along is extremely helpful for setting things in stone. When I’m going along, doing whatever it is I’m doing, and I have a profound thought, I write it down as quickly as I can and ponder on it for a moment, because I know if I don’t, it will be gone the next moment.

[sarahmarieivfmommy]

I’m hearing that my adhd self that struggles so bad to focus will have an even harder time overcoming my depression then. 😔

[CharlieSummers.]

This man’s willingness to share neuroscience in an understandable way has been life-changing for me. Thank you, Andrew Huberman.

[bizzareadventure]

Wouldn’t awareness be a better word than focus for this case

[universal_wisdom]

Basically if you want to learn something, you need to convince your brain that you NEED to learn that particular thing.

Power of my entry point is getting rid off negative comments and memories .

Marcus Wynne was a cognitive neuroscience researcher who wrote a book called "neural based training retrospectives"

[krystal]

Makes me think of everytime I start to panic or an attack is coming, I focus on a task or just tell my self you're ok. Just breath and focus
