Care About The Concept - Deepstash

Care About The Concept

This means two things:

  1. Actually care about the concept - this is pretty important. If you are passionate or have a goal in mind (such as an exam), this is easy. If not, a good tip from the video is to see the concept as a challenge (it should bother you that you do not understand it)
  2. Make your brain think the problem is important - think about why the concept is useful. Try to spend a lot of time playing around with the concept, so that your brain thinks it’s important. If you do so, your unconscious brain will help you internalize the concept better even after you are no longer focusing on it
