How Do You Learn Something New?

If you could learn fast and effectively, you might become person with something interesting to say on any topic. It also can help you in your carreer or business. You can learn more efficiently. Just use a few of following techniques, and use them until they become habit.

First, when you want to learn new material, expose your mind to it as soon as possible, even before you feel "ready," or have time to study. This first stage of learning is confusing part where you look at new ideas and say, "huh?" If you do this quickly, however, reviewing everything for a few minutes, your unconscious mind will start "incubating" new concepts, and finding some way to organize them.

The next time you sit down with new material, begin to relate it to what you already know. Compare and contrast things. Say to yourself, "That's like...," or "How is that different from..." The concept of autoresponder was new to me when I started my newsletter, but it really sunk in and motivated me when I thought, "It's like someone doing all my addressing and mailing for pennies a day." This prompted all important questions, and I was ready to learn about it.

Create Curiosity and Anticipation

You probably agree that you can learn more effectively with curiosity and anticipation working for you. So how do you create this state of mind? One way is to leave each learning session with a question or two clearly in your mind. This creates sense of anticipation and curiosity that will help you next time you approach material. It's like a television show cutting to a commercial at an interesting moment in program. You want to stay tuned, to see what will happen next.

Use Your Imagination

--The sensing mind is filled with lacks and limitations; spiritual mind knows only limitless abundance.

When I read this sentence, word that struck me was “sensing.” I had to think about why that word caught my attention so sharply. Was it because we don’t often use phrase “sensing mind”? No, that didn’t seem to be reason. Then it dawned on me. “Sensing” sounded a lot like “sensible”! It’s not just our “sensing,” physical-world minds, but our “sensible” minds that are filled with lacks and limitations!

Did anyone ever tell you to “be reasonable”? What did that mean? It meant “don’t expect too much.” Or “don’t reach so high.” Or “don’t be such a dreamer.” But haven’t you noticed that truly great things happen when we’re unreasonable?

Our senses limit us to what they perceive. What we can’t hear, touch, feel, see, taste, we don’t comprehend; it doesn’t seem “sensible” to us. But that limits us, our aspirations, our lives, to what we know.
