80 / 20
Keep near what helps with learning, completely remove what doesnt
differentiate between learning and performing
At the beginning of a project that seems unfamiliar, we need to tell our brain that we’re in learning mode. We need to establish that one of our main takeaways from this undertaking will be new knowledge, not just an immediately successful outcome.
taking the hard way and avoiding the shortcut is how effective learning takes place.
Activity trumps Passivety in learning
complimenting on the process rather than on their talent promotes a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset
Taking notes on anything we go through or experience on a daily basis and creating an organized system to make these notes accessible later helps us retain knowledge we’ll need in future practical applications.
give yourself arbitrary deadlines to meet certain standards
