40% of humanity never learns… But why? Hint: They are not stupid…

I have some students who are not keeping up with the other students. These students don’t learn. So much so, that after a whole year, they are still at page 1 or page 2 of a class… that is 100 pages… Of course there are no pages… but pages express more what I want to say than percentages.

It is the middle of the night: I got up to write this article, because I got the insight that has been missing.

Before you can learn something, you need to see the end result in your mind’s eye. Then when you actually get there you can recognize it.

If you can’t see it ahead of time, in your mind’s eye, you won’t recognize it even when you get there, because you have never seen it before. So you don’t know what you are seeing.

This is a very important distinction.

When you drop something on the floor, you won’t find it unless you know exactly what it looks like. So mechanics, seamstresses, etc. use the trick to drop a second same item… but this time intentionally, and see what it looks like in the environment of the floor. And a minute later they can find the original dropped item.
