Episode notes

You can learn faster by actually slowing down and being methodical, doing the deliberate practice. Some people are so scared of making mistakes that they don't even understand what slow is. I had a whole science team come in and study this for me, a bunch of PhDs. If I tell you to go slow, most likely you're going 40% too fast. You have to even dial that back more.

How do you learn faster by going slower?

That may sound like a contradiction, but we’re going to be talking about this key component to learning in this episode.

This topic is also important because, to truly learn something, you have it go through it step-by-step and be patient with yourself.

We enjoy bringing knowledge from a lot of different aspects of life, and this is one of them.

We have Tim Larkin joining us today to talk about this topic of going slow to learn fast.

What makes him interesting is that he’s a self-protection advocate, a Self Defense Instructor of the Year, and the Black Belt Hall Of Fame. A former military intelligence officer, Tim was part of a group that redesigned how Special Operations personnel trained for close combat.

Because of his background, Tim brings a unique perspective to this topic of focus and learning.
