Enhanced Ability

The state of mind which a person appraches study will determine the results that the person gets from study.

You must determine what you are going to do with the things you learn.

If you study just to pass a test you will be very incapable of doing anything with the subject you have studied once the exam is over.

Non-involvement is the primary barrier in the ability to apply materials.

There is only one valid reason for studying, studying for understanding, application and practice.

A student is one who studies, is attentive and is a systematic observer. A student is one who reads in detail in order to learn and then apply.

He connects what he is studying to what he will be doing.

A person can get hung up on the all importance and everything-ness of a subject. He is so nervous of dire consequences that he will eventually have an accident.People are often educated into this attitude. It is all so important that it will kill him if he doesn’t know. This inhibits his power of chouce and ability to evaluate data. Education is usually taught by consequence, not by the fact it is a sensible thing to do. In the world, importance essentially means punishment.

Here’s what to do

To reach someone a subject just have him select out the unimportances of the subject. He will start to think everthing is important but coax him on with affinity, reality, communication and good control and he will eventually come up with something unimportant, that is, you are teaching him how to drive a tractor. He will find the coat of paint on the crank unimportant. You acknowledge and ask him to find something else unimportant. Keep at this reapeating it and repeating it and eventually “allness” will start to disintegrate. He will select down to the most important controls of the tractor and the next thing you know he can drive a tractor! He wont have a craving to know anxiety and won’t be nervous at all. You are teaching by de-evaluation of importance.

You wil find that a person who never selected out the importances of a subject, and who believes every datum must be memorised, you will find has a history of being punished.
