Repetition is the Mother of all learning

repetitio mater studiorum

In the pursuit of trying to learn as much as possible, at times I hardly learn anything. And it’s because I fail to repeat and practice. Is it silly or a waste of time to listen to a good podcast* over and over? Or for that matter reread books? No! What is a waste of time is to only listen to or read it once and then forget all the good points that made me go “Aha! I need to remember and practice that.”

So many light bulb moments, so little time and I end up in the twilight zone. This post is to help me focus, select a few light bulbs to screw in my head, and let those shine brightly.

Repetition is not repetition…The same action makes you feel something completely different by the end.
