      https://twitter.com/unfinishthought/status/857913958740578304 … I've stopped all straining to try and grasp concepts. 1) it's overrated 2) easier to pick up the book next time.

      Studying dense material isn't hard, you make it hard by furrowing your brow to grasp it. The ego thinks itself the only element in learning.

      This is critical. T. Galleway explains it beautifully in The Inner Game of Work

      I'm intrigued by this, but I confess I don't understand. What's wrong with effort? How else are we to learn difficult concepts?

      Galleway coached his tennis students by asking them to observe the stitches on the tennis ball as it flew through the air

      This distracted their Self 1 (analytical, critical) so that their Self 2 (intuitive, embodied) could take control and learn naturally

      He developed this into a powerful theory of learning: run interference on Self 1 in whatever you're learning, and Self 2 will take over

      This is the subtle effect of Prog Summarization: u distract S1 w/ tedious highlighting/summarizing, not even exerting effort to "learn"

      And somehow in the background, released from expectations, u absorb concepts even better than before

          Stop analyzing, watch a model and mimicry, distract s1 w/ minor tasks, train proprioception instead of knowledge
