“Never stop learning because life never stops teaching.” As they say, learning is a never-ending journey. There are ways to boost your learning ability by doing things the right way.
Here are some tips that educators have shared on becoming a better learner.
Do not give in to lack of enthusiasm. You should not seek what the class can give you but seek the fascinating thing about each class. Look at the material, and try to deduce why someone once thought it was terrific. You’ll discover that the material is much easier to learn. You don’t have to ‘memorize’ things that are fascinating; you automatically remember them.
Understand why you are studying, what you are studying. It’s important to be aware of your studies. Relate it with your practical life. Get real life examples. Do not memorize it blindly. Create a visual of the event.
When you are studying, shut off all distractions. Turn off music, don’t text, don’t check social media. You need to focus exclusively on the material in front of you.
Create clear goals and set a plan. Know what you want and figure out how you will reach it. Use your gained knowledge to develop powerful strategy, by thinking deeply on the knowledge you have found.
Never again will you be so closely associated with so many future successes. The friends you make in school are the managers, entrepreneurs, the drivers of tomorrow.You will find that when it’s time to look for a job, or strike out on your own, that your network will not only be a safety net for you – it will be an absolute treasure trove.”
Every individual is unique and has its own purpose. Do not compare your life with others. Instead, compare your life with your past. Ask yourself this question, have you improved?
Our society today is incredibly good at giving individuals the opportunities to change the world. With digital technology and modern communications, ideas and products can spread faster than ever before. With the right ideas and strong execution, any person can quickly help a lot of others on our planet.
Don’t rely on your diploma too much. While it might be relevant for your future, you might find your calling in an entirely different industry.
Work hard and work smart. Be focused and don’t waste time. Time is the only ‘resource’ we have which we cannot get back.Keep your word. Be on time, be respectful.
Be open to learning from anyone regardless of age, experience, education, and more. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Remember how you often learned the most from tough teachers and challenging classes? That’s likely because the teachers and courses pushed you to not just memorize but also analyze their motives and identify motifs. While that may not have been fun at the time, per say, you likely came out learning more than if you’d coasted through true-false quizzes.
While reflecting on a challenge that you are facing, it will help if you ask yourself these questions:
Try experimenting with different solutions to a problem and see it from different perspectives. Sometimes sticking to a sole perspective will not resolve the problem.
Always ask for feedback on your performance. Get advice from your peers or colleagues who have observed your work. Ask them how you can improve and what are your strengths. After this, ask yourself what you’ve learned so far.
