Have a Purpose for Learning

How your Brain Learns
How does learning work? Look up the bibliographies and references in the books you read. Get an understanding from the sources within the context they were originally intended.

In order to accelerate your learning, it may help to understand the functions of the various parts of the brain. The brain is a tool we use everyday to interface and interact with the world, it is a wonder how little most people know about it and its proper use. The left side of the brain is logic driven and can connect ideas closely related to one another and is good when used with focussed intent. The right side of the brain is more creative and works much better when it is given the freedom to explore and wander. It is able to connect ideas and thoughts which seem unrelated to create out of the box and creative solutions. You have to sometimes let go of the control of the left brain during problem solving and let the right brain do its thing. We sometimes focus on problems so much so that we completely ignore solutions and fixate and remain within a state of mind that can only think ‘PROBLEM’ Ask your brain a question and do something mundane for a few minutes, you may be surprised at what surfaces…
