HOW DO YOU LEARN?

The strangest thing you ever read in a long time.

Grameen Bank is a bank that gives micro-credit to the poorest of the poor in society. The bank has a success rate of 98%, has more than 20,000 employees, and has loaned more than $20 billion to more than 10 million people in Bangladesh.

At the center of all this is Prof. Muhammad Yunus, the founder of Grameen Bank. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1996.

I am currently reading his biography, I read something astonishing. Professor Yunus cannot learn anything without having the TV turned on. Without the TV, he cannot think, he cannot read, he cannot learn and he cannot engage in productive activities.

Strange, right?

Yet. That is how Professor Yunus is able to learn. Apparently, it has worked for him very well.

Let's leave Yunus aside, how about you... how do you learn? Do you know what circumstances make you learn best?

That is probably the most important question as a lifelong learner. You must understand yourself and understand the circumstances that allow you to learn fast.

I challenge you, to examine yourself, and figure out the best circumstances that help you learn fast.

Three Questions to Help You Figure This;

1. What was the time I enjoyed learning the most?

2. In what circumstances is my thinking more sharp and clear?

3. Where and when did I come up with my best ideas?

Meanwhile, if you have figured out your best learning circumstances, I will be glad to hear about it. Tell us in the comment box.
