How Do You Learn How To Learn?

Learning... 

How do we know if we’re good learners? What quantifies our awareness? Is it innate?
Through much experience learning or trying to..Ive found that the masters of knowledge ask more questions than answer them. They can unlearn in a moments time, adapt and switch gears.
Could it be that the ability to learn lives in the unlearning?
Everyone reading this has been breathing their whole life...seems like something that doesn’t need to be learned 

Performance:
1.) Self-Awareness
2.) Choice
3.) Energy
Become aware of what you’re learning right now, the environments you’re in. The information you allow yourself to be exposed to. Ask yourself and others questions. Then do the deep work to really see if that’s true.... Make the choice. Understand your value system. Set the standard. Fail often and connect the dots, solve the problems. But be careful here. There are many problems to solve. So choose the one worth solving.

Energy...The feedback loop. Comes through our senses. breathe poorly =think poorly. Eat poorly=think poorly. Move poorly=think poorly. Sleep poorly=think poorly. If we’re thinking poorly, we ask poor questions, we do that we make poor choices. Starts with breath....

 One Love, Harv

Mind-Body Connection

-
We are mental beings, in a physical body, in a physical world. The mind is mental and is subjective. The body is physical and is objective. At some point they intersect. Due to our human nature, we happen to have both. To some degree, the two are tethered together, like two birds of a feather (am I rapping?). So how does this happen? How does the abstract, subjective, emotional, non-material world intersect with the concrete, objective, factual, material world? In human form, here is how: There is a chain link of interaction, starting on either end of the spectrum. Within this spectrum are 5 main factors that interact up and down the chain. Physical Level 1: Environment: The physical world. Nothing mental about it. Only physical matter. Physical nature. Everything on the Periodic Table of Elements. Level 2: Physical Body: Receptors. This is humans’ first interaction with the physical world, and happens on a physical level. Still physical to physical. We feel pain, we feel heat, we feel

Pulling The Weeds

-
Being an observer of human behavior for a living is equally rewarding and exhausting. Why? The reward comes from repeatedly seeing the triumph in our human spirit after tragedy, and from observing families and friends sharing love and growth together. The exhaustion comes from repeatedly seeing the human ego sabotage human decency or fracture relationships, and from seeing fear cripple the confidence or joy that should be the essence of our human experience. Pulling the Weeds. In order to grasp the full picture, it feels useful to first examine what behaviors do not fulfill us. If we can understand what the opposite of fulfillment is, then the path to fulfillment comes a bit more clear. By no means is this list comprehensive, but it includes a vast array of what it looks like when insecurities and disillusioned thought patterns make an appearance. Stagnant Unaccountable Angry Pessimistic Fixed mindset/stubborn Arrogant Fragile Physically unhealthy Insecure Unreliable Manipulative Contr

Between Stimulus and Reaction

-
One could argue the optimization of performance is the choice made under pressure. At its core you have few things that you really control in these short bursts between a stimulus and your reaction. (Breath) The paradox here is that it certainly does not seem like it. Our brain is wired to make decisions all day in hopes of keeping us safe. This creates a massive amount of chaos. Constantly bouncing back and forth between past and future decisions. And like all things this means (Energy). This is how chess players are capable of burning thousands of calories a day during a competition. They’re thinking, solving and projecting (Mental Energy). Think of people in sales, coaches or teachers...Exhausted at the end of the day purely through talking. (Emotional Energy) (Physical Energy) Look at google or YouTube of any exhausted runner, fighter or athlete. Or observe your dog after chasing all the sticks we throw them. Chances are they’re breathing through their mouth, their eyes are squint
