Slow learning

Much more in there, but the basics:

  1. Focus on direction, not destination
    Immerse yourself completely in the journey and you will reach your final goal gradually.
  2. Raise your hand
    Asking questions is a fundamental human right.
  3. Learn at your own pace
    Find your rhythm, find your flow. Don’t compare yourself to others.
  4. Unplug
    You have the right to disconnect and move your attention towards what’s essential. Learn unplugged, far away from digital distractions.
  5. Change your learning path (and mind)
    Don’t get too comfortable in the habit zone and start with changing the aversion to change. Think differently and learn new things.
  6. Take a break
    Micro-breaks, lunch breaks, and longer breaks will all improve your learning performance. You have the right to rest.
  7. Make mistakes
    Don’t fall into despair but Fail Forward.
  8. Leave it unfinished
    We live in a super busy, multi-tasking, results-oriented society. Step away from your long to-do list and enjoy once in a while the beauty of an unstructured day.
  9. Unlearn and forget
    Harness the power of unlearning. Reboot your mind, abandon old knowledge, actions and behaviours to create space.
  10. Slow down
    Sometimes slow and steady will win the learning race. Make haste slowly.

So, this isn’t over. Not by a long shot.

Safari 16.4 is an admission that competition is effective and that Apple is spooked, but it isn’t an answer.

What all the soups had in common, and what piqued Grub’s curiosity, was that they had all been made from the same soup base, which Pickowicz had been continuously cooking and feeding with new ingredients. She calls it her “Soup Mother.” As a technique, the idea of a never-ending stew has been around, quite literally, forever…
