All my life I used to chase for tips and tricks and hacks to find shortcuts for studying. How to cover the most in the shortest time. But in reality I realised that studying is inherently a slow and time consuming process. The results are never evident in the short term but over a course of months you really start to notice improvements. The trick really is to believe in yourself and never give up on what you started initially.

Now I'm actually starting to believe in the saying "one at a time" and "slow and steady wins the race". Thank you🥺

"We have to learn what we have to change" (and not just change at random)... So simple, but so powerful. Thank you!

MAN! It would've been MUCH better if you made this video earlier. Many people (including me) have gone through this same process where we watch a lot of videos on learning, self-improvement etc. but get little results. That is probably why many people say that your videos don't have any practical tips, because most people aren't used to engaging in the experiential cycle of learning. Only when I started to squeeze out as much as i can from your videos and working on that for a long time, I saw the results you promised. But many will complain that your videos are useless. Thanks Justin Sung! I appreciate your efforts in the youtube space of learning and will try to enroll on your course as soon as i can afford it!

If only I had seen this video during my college years. This is the learning secret I've been looking for my entire life. Now I know why I thought I've learned so much but no new usable skills stick in my brain

He basically said you need to learn how to figure out the problem and try to find the solution or right method to achieve your goal.

Minset, Problem/Hindrances, Resources, Time & organization, Method/ Theory, and Action/consistency. Thank you clearing the pathway Doctor Sung

The idea to slow down learning reminds me on the time I learned how to write. If I tried to write fast too quickly. I could beat others, but my handwriting was bad and the more time passed it deteriorates so much, I hardly can read it anymore.

Also, once a habit, a new skill and the theory and practice/experience behind it will essentially increase your mental capacity and effectiveness to process both acquiring news skills, understanding new knowledge and excel at almost everything and anything, because they will be a Foundation that you already have.

Basically, imagine yourself 10 years ago, or maybe 2-3 if you are younger, and think about how good was speaking, reading, understanding words, vocabulary... and how is it now?
And how all of that affects and influence your life, your interactions, your communication and expressions, your ability to learn and understand things around you and in/of the World and the Universe.

Amazing video.

Thank you.

May health and love be at your side.

I was facing cognitive overload in the ICanStudy course and tried to convince myself I wasn't going too fast, I may not have been going too fast in terms of time bound but I was spending less time looking at each technique. Thanks Justin for answering the question I have been unable to for the last 2 years.

I am a piano player. When I studied a polyphonic piece with five voices I understood I had to study not more than two, or at least three voices at a time. It looks I didn't think so wrong. 😊

I agree, but i think it's important to make sure your theory is correct before you start. If you are unsure if your theory is correct it can be worth a little overload before practice

This is not a new idea, everyone knows this or heard of it in one form or another.

But what I love about your take is that it explains why, even with our best intentions and efforts, we often do not get the results we were hoping for.

This has alleviated a lot of my frustrations for not being able to use many of the techniques I have come across over the years with any lasting effects.

Thank you.
