If you stick to the rules, we'll straight off we're going to break that rule of changing the way your mind thinks. So take all of this with a sense of play, take it slow. Repeat these lessons a lot rather than learning 20 new things. Try learning one thing 20 times in 20 different ways. Welcome to the Art of procedural learning. It's deceptively simple. That's why most people especially smart people, don't get it right. It's about repetition and refinement, not splitting the atom to make it

These are the signs that your brain is trying to change itself up to figure out something in a new way. Be at peace with not being at peace. Good things don't come easily be a king of confusion. Take it in your stride. It's like your brain has a stomach but it feeds on information. Now you're trying to help it's digestion to the food better. Break the information down make it simple. Don't try to overfeed yourself. And while we're there, eat better avoid eating just before you do a session. The guts take a lot of energy to digest food energy that's better off safe
