    Episode 25 | How to articulate and remember what you learn

    - There are a couple of points that I was wanting Isaac and me to discuss on today's podcast - How to simply form an opinion - here is the path to creating your own opinion - active reading - listen to as many arguments as u can - argue with people smarter than me - fight against my own emotional bias (self-serving bias vs confirmation bias) - think about as many variables as possible - and also the original problem of not remembering. How can I form an opinion or understand something if I can’t remember - How to learn faster, and remember more in an ever-changing career - eliminate the noise How to remember everything you learn by removing these things: - information streams that cause overload - multitasking - distractions - Once you have only one source of information coming in, you can use these techniques to help you remember and comprehend the information - recall - Feynman (*Fine men*) technique - spaced repetition
