Learning Process

I came across this gem:

Keith Holyoak, a UCLA professor of psychology and one of the world’s leading thinkers on analogical reasoning, recommends people ask themselves the following two questions in order to hone their skills:

1. What does this remind me of?

2. Why does it remind me of it?

By constantly looking at objects in your environment and material you read and asking yourself these two questions, you build the muscles in your brain that help you make connections across traditional boundaries.

The above was in an articlethat sheds light on how Elon Musk is able to learn so many things in so many areas, that is a great read not just into processes practiced by Musk, but also to get an idea as to how one can accelerate learning.
