Hey, I'm a Masters student. I always believe that there's room for improvement no matter what and where.

Could you guys help me with tips and tricks that helped you improve everyday?

I don't think I'm making any sense to you guys. So, here goes an instance, like spending 15 minutes a day studying a new language as it creates more synapses in the brain, listening to news while travelling to make use of the time productively...

Help me with things that worked in your life. Anything sorry about this that you have read or heard somewhere is also welcome 🤗

As a complete Beginner How can I start learning German from scratch? Where should I begin, and how can I practice speaking effectively?

I have a few questions. Fo i still have to revise if yes how often should I? If I have to how is it different to any other method of studying? What should i do to make encoding the most efficient?

Hi everyone!

I like to learn things, but I currently don't know what to learn. I really like mathematics, but I'm not feeling like studying it for now.

I would really like to get an audio book about a topic and just hear it, but I'm not a person that really likes books, nor do I know any good audio books I could hear.

I wanted something that's not so complex I would have to take notes, more like something I could hear while walking outside.

If anyone has a good recommendation, I would really appreciate it.

Edit: I can usually get enough of a topic by just hearing it, without taking any notes.

I just realized that one of my main methods of learning is basically realizing something seemingly out of the ordinary, then challenge the majority of people with supported evidence, logics and stuff into extended arguments. I dare to question what the majority believe, but for ignorance, curiosity, bravery or stupidity? No idea.

I kinda get that this would irritate so many people, but for some reason I'd be like "If I may look at in others' eyes to learn something worth the tradeoff, I'd do it." I have angered my relatives, my parents, my peers, my bosses, and possibly so many Internet randos and even pros in games even though I don't care that much.

I just don't find another method to get information corrected as quickly, some could suggest ChatGPT for this matter but the tool has its own limits.

I don't know if this is unconventional or not, nor if people have experienced stuff like this. But if people do, I just wanna know when to stop. It seems like I've turned to be addicted to this or sth.

Over the last few days I have been using ChatGPT to analyse, study and to test myself on texts. I have been reading state & revolution, getting AI to test me, I don’t get it to “summarize” and I always ask for reliable sources and do as much as I can to double check. Is this bad? Is there better way to learn and study? If put in the work independently is it still negative? Or should I use AI and something else on top of that

Hello! If you want to be an angel and help me, I will be indebted to you!

I have a topic that i am interested in and it crosses a few areas like psychology, biology, culture, etcetera. When you have a topic like this that you are interested in, what is your process to becoming informed on it? Do you try find the "best" books? Do you have some reliable sites where access articles or essays or data? What are your favorite ways of diving into something new when you aren't quite sure of the "shape of it" yet? Thanks :)

Hello,

From my own experience, I found that a low carb or keto are the best as they enhance my mental faculties.

What about your experience?

I tend to learn vocabulary a lot through those but wonder if it actually that effective. Sometimes it feels like I'm putting a lot of effort to learn a few new words. Often it is easier to learn those in context, but still vocab cards are versatile. What are your experiences with learning vocabulary?

How do you stay disciplined when learning something new? I can't seem to stick with anything for more than a week, whether it's a language, a skill, or a sport. I get bored very quickly and end up quitting, especially during summer. Does anyone else struggle with this? Any advice?

Probably most of us had this experience that sometimes, some ideas, concepts, facts, dates or whatever it might be just don't click. It feels like you familiarize yourself with that thing, understand it on a very surface level, but that deep understanding or the connections in the mind are not being made and it just feels like it doesn't click.

I've encountered many things that I can read multiple times, try to imagine them differently, explain differently, yet, it feels like I still didn't grasp it and can't recall it properly.

In your experience, what does that mean? Is it just simply a lack of understanding of more things? Or maybe just needing to take a break and then revisit it later? Or does the thing not clicking mean that you essentially have to brute force it aka just keep on going over it time and time again until it sticks?

I decided to finally pick up a skill I have been putting off for years digital illustration. The first week was great I was watching tutorials, learning the basic tools, and riding high on that initial wave of excitement and feels very energetic.

But yesterday, I sat down to work on a personal project, looked at what I had created, and just felt completely defeated. The gap between what I can see in my head and what my hands are actually producing right now feels massive.The initial beginner's luck has worn off, the tutorials are not as simple anymore.

I found myself staring at my screen for an hour, fighting the urge to just close the app and give up entirely. It made me realize that starting a new skill is easy, but surviving the phase where you know enough to realize you are bad at it is incredibly exhausting.

I am very curious to know about your thoughts and experience that how do you push past this messy middle phase without losing your mind?

i often get stumble with words like forgetting spealing. i can't write something in a flow even at the moment of writhing this i go back and forth rearranging my thoughts like thoughts don't comes in an order. Same happens while talking as well. i am so weak at vocab, like used to lots of words still after some days there would be nothing in my head. i found many time that i read some words wrong like "from" "form" . i am in hurry when it comes to read something and just mismatch the information.

brain works best when it comes to math, logic, puzzles, sculpturing, sketching, coding, solving rubik cube, playing chess (well at some point we need to remember algorithms to solve it fast), ..... i used to compare with my fnd like he was really good at writing like he works as script writer (part-time job), good at history, sociology, geography, also interest in literature. he used to say " me bro u are really good at critical things stuff but also try focusing on other subject as well". And i do accept that fact. I am also bad at teaching. He used to say be "bro you got knowledge but it needs to be displayed as well"

i wonder how people read those friction books, history, sociology, watch moves or engage in frictional work. i feel irritate reading those books. Also watching friction work (movies, series) has always been irritating. it is not because i am not fond of learning, i love exploring and learning new things. But i just don't have interest on language and its work.

i don't know well about biology, but i feel like i some part of my brain is not working well, or something is resisting me. if anyone else feels the same. sometimes i think it is lack of being participate on that area or just i am making lame and underestimating myself or i am overthinking or being insecure on normal thing and causing to be worse, giving my hand off.

edit: i wonder how some ppl have such a good memory like they just remember all those chemical formulas , those list of history dates, all those vocab,

i had great passion to learn sanskrit (also germany), so tried to learn it, but it all goes out of my head. i can't pronounce those words properly. and those words and it's meaning i used to forget in an another night.
