How to make sure that your “Learning Accelerates!”

One of my awesome students asked me today, “What’s your subject?”

We were discussing about how learning happens best when interest is high.

The thing that gets you the most excited… that’s your subject!

Well I reckoned my answer wasn’t going to be satisfactory, but I told her, “My subject is everything.”

Because no matter where you start, all knowledge is connected. Let’s start somewhere nice and safe – with the sciences: Biology, Chemistry and Physics. (Finally, we are in the generation that will see all the sciences merge into a unified subject.)

As you expand your knowledge, you begin to see inter connections and relations between fields of expertise. Knowledge loops get created when you expand your mental maps. E.g.

Biology directly connects with Psychology which directly links with Politics then Economics – Philosophy – Art – Physics – Chemistry and back to Biology.

Or…

Maths – Logic – Linguistics – Communication – Commerce – Statistics – Maths

Even…..

History – Culture – Anthropology – Geography – Chemistry – Materials Science – Physics – Art – History

What field of knowledge becomes encompassed by your areas of interest? Can you create your own knowledge loops?

Funny how the two, traditionally opposing disciplines of art and science can inspire and reflect each other.

“The more you know, the easier it is to know more”, says physicist Tom Campbell;

“Learning Accelerates”.

In our world today, there are three core skills that will facilitate your ability to do everything else: Learning, Communication and Organisation.

Calibrate your Learning to Accelerate.
