In due to live better

I really used to think that the value of my past cant do too much with my present, but thanks to God that it was pretty short time, because i have always thought humans are an open book and half is written by our past and half should be written by us, but no matter what you have learnt IT ALWAYS will be a plus to your life, because the knowledge does not take a place in vain, i mean the more you learn, the better person you become independently the situation you could imagine; so dont underestimate your process and your changes of learning...

                                             things im going to work on...

- Im going to take it slow when i cant learn something in the time i was supposing to, slow learners reach the goal too!

- Reward myself: everytime i have to test my study session to see the real chunk.

-Value: i already said that value every subject you are learning and have learnt!

-Whenever i find myself wandering between options or a problem a diffuse... a walk, a workout routine, a movie, a youtube video, WHATEVER makes you disconnect.

                                Learning traversing life

I really used to think that the value of my past cant do too much with my present, but thanks to God that it was pretty short time, because i have always thought humans are an open book and half is written by our past and half should be written by us, but no matter what you have learnt IT ALWAYS will be a plus to your life, because the knowledge does not take a place in vain, i mean the more you learn, the better person you become independently the situation you could imagine; so dont underestimate your process and your changes of learning...

Have you ever realized that you make focused and diffuse ways of thinking? I vaguely remember myself sumerged into one article os this topic but never applying this to my life or way of studying, thanks to barbara and Terrance for the information and creative method to teach us how to correctly manage our tools... nature tools that we already have but we dont know!

Matching passions with opportunity, i consider myself being active in this meaning search. Why? most of the time im doing what i really enjoy and also what im not good at, due to getting to know more about the world and the things around us, i exhort you to develop curiosity for everything in your environment, it could take you to a bifurcate where you might become a genius or a sleepless human haha, now just joking... you should take this advice!!

In order to evaluate the environment around you, i suggest you to look for people that genuenly apports you some good stuff to your life, in consecuence of so many negative folks in the world and making our life, sometimes pretty unsatisfaying, so i really ask you to obserb your place of living, studying and also your funny ones and if you can, due to some cases we really cant do anything to take off a person of our life, take a passive role (if isnt gonna cause you bad consecuences) i have learnt that peace comes when you dont take everything personal and let it go a LOTT of what makes you bad to react. In coclusion it will boost your others areas of life and of course your learning habits and results.

                                        My future planning implements:

Actitud:

- Im going to take it slow when i cant learn something in the time i was supposing to, slow learners reach the goal too!

- Reward myself: everytime i have to test my study session to see the real chunk.

-Value: i already said that value every subject you are learning and have learnt!

-Whenever i find myself wandering between options or a problem a diffuse... a walk, a workout routine, a movie, a youtube video, WHATEVER makes you disconnect.

-Today im trying to work actively in this " match my passion with oportunities" a lot of people are living the fullest doing exactly what they wanted to, ¿ why would i think i cant? POSTIVE to create, learn and express myself.

-In the area os what surrounds me, i should say that im changing a lot os aspects, new and others that i already did being concious about negative situations and people, all of this really affects your learning and ability to learn more and faster.

Making:

-Everyday im doing a little bit of the subjects i want to get better, at least 1 hour.

-Making myself value to talk in front of the camera, no matters whos there.

                                                    The learning process.

A lot of things are said about the act of learning, multiple mistaken ideas that tends to take us as learners thru the wrong way; with that being said i would love to share with you what i have learned about learning. 

So lets get started:

In first place i wanna talk about habits, because this could be one of the key things we are doing that does not contribute in reaching the level in a subject that we desire.

A habit is formed by:

a) cue 

b) a chunked idea

c) repetition

  Chunk: is the neural conections our brain does when we have a habit integrated, in other words is like going to ride a bike (if you already know how to) the act of making/ or saying an action and no thinking about of the act. Also apply in explaining ideas or talking about something you really know about.

                                                            The differents ways that our brain receives the information:


a)Focused attention: when you are learning or talking with someone, your brain is focusing on the theme or at the same thime bringing some records <chunks> (the way that are called, it is the storage that you have unconsciously that you most of the time dont even notice that you are using it.

b) Diffuse mode: this mode is used when you already learnt something and you use it without thinking like: getting dressed, your native language... there are some famous inteletual persons that used this way of thinking to resolve a focused problem, for example: Salvador Dalí and Tesla, one of them used to sit and stay hours thinking with something in his hand so if he fall asleep inmediately get awaken by the sound and could pass the focused to diffuse attention and so could get a solution.


First of all, the desire of learning should not get lost never, neither when you are in the lastest years of your life, scientist has shown that we produce new neurons in olders years and so that means we can constantly learn a new subject, of course it can get harder but not impossible or uneficient. im going to give you some tips for helping your brain to maintain his skills, here it goes:

• Do some active movement everyday YES!! workout, dont take this word in a bad way, a workout could be 15 per day, go for a walk, run, a quickly walk and so the list os activities are pretty long, but your body and also your brain needs to be active to do a better work, if we read some history, we can see our ancestors really had a hard working life and its comes with the genetic, our body also needs to work, to move, to be in health.

• Eat healthy, in fact sugars or ioly foods can reduce our energy and therefore our focus on something like learning a new thing, could get a little harder to learn.

• Sleep well, rest is very important in our life, a bad habit of sleep can conduce you to bad humor, depressions, ansiety... with all those things how can you think about learning? consciously try to sleep better if you are struggling with it.

• Try to develop interest and discipline, the first because to learn something you have to be pretty open minded and curious about a lot of things that comes with the process, because when you are learning something it is never one thing, along the way you are going to be focusing your attetion in facts related to.

                                                                                         

                                                                      5 things you are doing wrong when learning something new:

1. Underlining: it is the most common thing in students (including myself) we have to break this habit, its not going to take us to where we want, underlining its okay just if you are going to do it with main ideas, MAIN IDEAS are not the entire paragraph, they are going to level up your capacity to learn more in less time, trust me... im goin to explain that later.
2. Focusing attention on what you are stuck on, this is called " Einstellung" a german word to describe the act of getting stuck in a problem and not finding the solution, this happens pretty often so they named it. if you see that you cant resolve a issue, take a moment, breath, and GO! let the day pass or if it is a little one come back hours later, but in the moment you are not goint to clear it up.
3. Exceeding the time you must work or study on a subject, after some time our brain gets tired and out of focuse so we have to control the quality time we personally spent in, you might have something where you study more and others where you have to push yourself a little bit.
4. Not resting enough, i know i said it before, but you dont even imagine how bad it is going to affect the result of your brain, if you dont give him the rest he needs.
5. Re-reading: you are NOT going to learn something by reading a few times in a day, first you have to understand what you are trying to lear and later you should repeat or test yourself in the things you already read, in order to see if its in your brain as you think.

Importants methods of making a concept from working memory to long term memory that you have to have present.

-underline: ideas not paragraphs.

-recall: do this in a pomodoro sesion everyday or alternate days until you finally chunked the idea.

- pomodoro: is a technique used to study something in focuse mode 25 minutes, set the timer and go! later take a break of like 10 minutes and do it again!

 you will be amazed by this thing.

-interleaving: if you are learning few subjects the perfect way to distract your brain from one thing to another is interleaving, you can do 2 pomodoros sesion with the respective breaks and after a longer break, go for another topic.

-deliberate test: is a must have in your agency, if you wanna learn somthing in less time, take two hours in a subject and do a test to yourself in 1 of these hours, this is going to improve your learning so much.

-study groups: if you have a team or the chance to make one, dont lose your oportunity to take the learning process to its limits, testing between themselves and listening another point of view (if your groups is focused in the goal).

-the palace technique: when you are trying to lear something like: numbers, lists or maths, apply to everything that we wanna learn. Take the time to relate the new thing with something you already know could be a name, a place, a person. You can make a super creative image of what you are learning and take for guarantee you are going to remember the next time. Be creative.

side note:

The best way to take your notes during class.

• PROCRASTINATION: get out of this circle...

To end this post im gonna tell you some tricks im using lately that i find pretty usefull.

-close your social Apps, YES! you definetely can, i mean if you wanna learn that subject, if its very important for you.

-walk near your home, go for a walk with your dog for 10 or 15 min each 4 hours (if you are always at home).

-prioritize your activities, we tend to do more than we must, so choose 3 tasks that you really wanna accomplish and stick to the plan dear.

-dont get stressed if you are not memorizing what you should, test yourself if you see you are dedicating so much time and you dont get the results you are working for.
