From David Shusterman, MD · WisdomSpan Press
Make knowledge stay.
A memorable picture is the beginning.
Understanding is what makes it useful.
THE APPROACH
Give an idea
somewhere to stick.
A connection should lead you back to an accurate explanation. Notice where a comparison helps—and where it stops working.
Connect
Choose a picture, story or comparison that makes the parts easier to follow.
Recall
Look away. Explain the idea in your own words, then check what you missed.
Apply
Try a new example. Return after time has passed and explain it again.
TRY IT RIGHT NOW
Close the page.
Open your memory.
Pick something you learned today. Take a minute to explain it without looking at the source.
Your words stay on this page. They are not sent or saved.
