00:00 - 00:02

Hello everyone, I am Anthony

00:02 - 00:03

Welcome to my channel

00:04 - 00:05

Today's video

00:05 - 00:07

Let's start a new series

00:07 - 00:09

How to learn and read

00:09 - 00:10

This is our channel.

00:10 - 00:12

Many netizens are concerned about

00:13 - 00:15

I often receive private messages from some netizens.

00:15 - 00:16

Just ask me Anthony

00:16 - 00:18

How do you study and read?

00:18 - 00:20

Why is the knowledge so broad?

00:20 - 00:22

What major are you studying?

00:22 - 00:23

That in this series

00:23 - 00:24

I'll have a chat

00:24 - 00:26

My concept of efficient learning

00:26 - 00:29

We also criticize those who have a bad view of learning.

00:29 - 00:31

About this topic

00:31 - 00:34

There are various articles in society that teach people how to learn.

00:34 - 00:35

Videos, books

00:35 - 00:36

But I think

00:36 - 00:39

I have a different philosophy from most authors.

00:40 - 00:41

Whether you are a self-learner

00:41 - 00:43

Still want to raise your children

00:43 - 00:45

I believe after watching this video

00:45 - 00:48

You will have a new perspective and understanding on learning

00:48 - 00:50

Those who have watched previous programs should remember

00:51 - 00:53

In the video on July 7 about enduring hardship

00:53 - 00:56

We criticized the mainstream learning concept in Chinese society.

00:56 - 00:57

That is suffering

00:58 - 00:59

At that time we said

00:59 - 01:02

Chinese people have always attached great importance to education and learning.

01:02 - 01:03

But this tradition

01:03 - 01:04

Will always bear

01:04 - 01:07

or endure great physical or mental pain

01:07 - 01:09

Seen as the key to learning ability

01:09 - 01:13

There are many proverbs and poems in China that emphasize this point.

01:13 - 01:15

For example, "The sea of ​​learning is endless and the journey is hard"

01:15 - 01:16

"Without a bitter cold

01:17 - 01:18

How can the plum blossoms smell so fragrant?

01:18 - 01:20

"When you are young, you don't know how to study hard.

01:20 - 01:22

"I regret not studying late when I am old" etc.

01:22 - 01:25

Through the analysis of celebrities such as Su Qin and Kuang Heng

01:25 - 01:26

We said

01:26 - 01:29

This learning concept based on hard work

01:29 - 01:31

The reason why it has been popular in Chinese history

01:31 - 01:33

It's actually a choice without a choice

01:33 - 01:36

The parties involved are motivated by some lack of motivation

01:36 - 01:37

Only those who study hard

01:37 - 01:39

Like a strong sense of shame

01:39 - 01:40

Or physical deficiency

01:40 - 01:41

therefore

01:41 - 01:44

This kind of learning is also completely utilitarian and instrumental

01:45 - 01:45

And their learning methods

01:45 - 01:48

It is mainly based on rote memorization,

01:48 - 01:49

Passive acceptance

01:49 - 01:53

The elements of debate, reasoning and reflection are very low

01:53 - 01:55

This is my hidden assumption:

01:55 - 01:57

In an ideal learning state

01:57 - 01:59

People should feel happy

02:00 - 02:03

And this happiness is mainly pure and self-sufficient

02:04 - 02:06

The "pure, self-sufficient"

02:06 - 02:08

Refers to the individual's learning being self-driven

02:09 - 02:10

Self-satisfied

02:10 - 02:12

It is first of all to satisfy one's spiritual needs

02:12 - 02:14

For example, the universe and nature

02:14 - 02:15

Human Society

02:15 - 02:18

and the inner world of curiosity and desire for knowledge

02:18 - 02:21

Therefore, his evaluation of his learning effect

02:21 - 02:25

First of all, it depends on the degree of expansion of your own mind.

02:25 - 02:27

Rather than external evaluation criteria

02:27 - 02:29

Ideal learning motivation

02:29 - 02:31

First of all, it should not be for the purpose of satisfying survival needs.

02:32 - 02:33

Like making a living

02:33 - 02:35

It shouldn't be to cater to the will of others.

02:35 - 02:36

and expectations

02:36 - 02:40

Here we need to distinguish between passive pandering and equal recognition.

02:40 - 02:43

Gain appreciation and acceptance of feedback from others

02:43 - 02:45

It is absolutely necessary for the learning process

02:45 - 02:47

But it’s an equal relationship

02:47 - 02:49

Not passive compliance

02:49 - 02:52

Of course, it is impossible for people to live in an ideal world.

02:52 - 02:53

People in reality

02:53 - 02:55

Inevitably, we are under various pressures

02:55 - 02:57

and external interference

02:57 - 02:59

And many people's learning ability

02:59 - 03:01

In fact, they have been badly educated in advance.

03:01 - 03:02

It was destroyed.

03:02 - 03:03

However

03:03 - 03:05

Realizing the ideal state

03:05 - 03:07

And pursue this ideal as much as possible

03:07 - 03:08

Still meaningful

03:09 - 03:12

However, that video did not provide any systematic evidence.

03:12 - 03:15

Why learning can be spontaneous and joyful

03:15 - 03:16

This ideal learning

03:16 - 03:19

Is it feasible in reality?

03:19 - 03:21

And how to operate

03:21 - 03:24

That’s what we’re going to explore in this series.

03:25 - 03:26

first

03:26 - 03:26

We say

03:26 - 03:30

The essence of learning is actually the connection of nerves

03:30 - 03:33

The human nervous system can be divided into two main parts

03:33 - 03:36

central nervous system

03:36 - 03:39

and peripheral nervous system

03:40 - 03:42

The central nervous system is the body's decision maker

03:42 - 03:44

Consists of the brain and spinal cord

03:44 - 03:46

It is highly plastic

03:46 - 03:49

This plasticity contains the most precious potential of human beings

03:49 - 03:51

Intrinsic drive to learn

03:52 - 03:52

The human brain

03:52 - 03:55

Natural desire to accept new information and knowledge

03:55 - 03:58

And it can release dopamine

03:58 - 03:59

To motivate and reinforce learning

04:00 - 04:02

This is the biological basis of the learn drive

04:03 - 04:03

For example

04:03 - 04:06

Toddlers instinctively explore objects around them

04:06 - 04:08

I will try to use my fingers,

04:08 - 04:10

Mouth or body to perceive the world

04:10 - 04:13

Their sensory and motor cortices were activated

04:13 - 04:15

Neural networks are constantly reorganizing

04:15 - 04:18

Forming new learning and memory pathways

04:18 - 04:21

This ultimately forms their cognitive framework for the world.

04:21 - 04:23

It’s a wonderful process full of spontaneity.

04:23 - 04:26

By touching, trying and observing

04:26 - 04:29

A toddler's brain is constantly integrating information from different senses

04:29 - 04:32

Their brains respond by releasing dopamine

04:32 - 04:34

To reward this spontaneous exploration

04:34 - 04:35

therefore

04:35 - 04:38

In an environment without distractions and with rich elements

04:38 - 04:40

Toddlers can play all day long

04:40 - 04:42

They don't need external rewards and evaluation

04:43 - 04:45

Exploration is fun in itself

04:45 - 04:47

This kind of independent exploration and learning

04:47 - 04:49

It is rooted in human nature

04:49 - 04:50

In an ideal situation

04:51 - 04:53

This can form a positive feedback loop

04:53 - 04:56

That is, individuals learn and explore

04:56 - 04:58

Gained happiness and a sense of accomplishment

04:58 - 05:01

This learning, in turn, makes neural circuits more efficient

05:02 - 05:03

Reduced cognitive load

05:03 - 05:06

Make the following study easier and more enjoyable

05:06 - 05:06

final

05:06 - 05:09

This interest will expand and migrate to a wider range of areas

05:09 - 05:11

Become a person's motivation for lifelong learning

05:11 - 05:13

Therefore, fundamentally

05:14 - 05:17

Everyone’s nature is to love learning and exploring

05:17 - 05:19

The positive feedback mechanism of learning drive

05:19 - 05:21

It can be compared to a chain reaction in physics.

05:22 - 05:23

In a chain reaction

05:23 - 05:26

Each time a nuclear fission occurs, more neutrons are released.

05:26 - 05:28

Triggering the next round of fission reaction

05:28 - 05:31

Chain reactions require a constant supply of fuel to sustain the reaction.

05:32 - 05:33

same

05:33 - 05:34

Learn drive

05:34 - 05:37

Need a constant supply of fresh information and rich materials

05:37 - 05:39

Keep your brain active and stimulated

05:40 - 05:40

This can be said

05:40 - 05:43

It is a person's most precious and greatest mental ability.

05:44 - 05:47

Many people think that human nature is lazy.

05:47 - 05:50

Need to be whipped and pushed to actively learn

05:50 - 05:53

Only then can we get out of our comfort zone and information cocoon

05:53 - 05:55

I think this idea is completely wrong

05:56 - 05:59

Because most people define learning too narrowly.

05:59 - 06:00

I think that only by doing things that are in line with the public

06:00 - 06:01

Think of it as learning

06:01 - 06:02

It is considered learning

06:03 - 06:03

for example

06:03 - 06:06

You must finish the homework assigned by the teacher before 12 o'clock

06:06 - 06:07

It's called learning

06:08 - 06:09

With this idea

06:09 - 06:11

Of course, I think "human nature is lazy"

06:12 - 06:12

However

06:12 - 06:15

If we look at it purely from the perspective of the parties involved

06:15 - 06:16

You will realize

06:16 - 06:19

People are actually always interested and curious.

06:19 - 06:21

Actively sensing and learning

06:21 - 06:23

It's just what he's most interested in.

06:23 - 06:25

Maybe it seems to you that this is not a proper job.

06:25 - 06:27

Informal, meaningless

06:28 - 06:31

But you still can't deny that he is still learning

06:31 - 06:32

This requires educators

06:32 - 06:36

First, there is this kind of prior belief in others.

06:36 - 06:37

You only have this belief

06:37 - 06:39

Discover the potential of others

06:40 - 06:41

Let me say one more thing here.

06:41 - 06:44

When we talk about people having potential

06:44 - 06:45

There is no need to be urged

06:45 - 06:47

Someone might say

06:47 - 06:49

Can you prove a math problem like

06:49 - 06:50

Prove it to me

06:50 - 06:51

If you can't prove

06:51 - 06:53

I just can't believe it

06:53 - 06:54

All I can say is

06:54 - 06:56

This proposition involves human nature and spirit

06:56 - 06:58

It is impossible to do it like natural science

06:58 - 07:02

Can be determined only by external observation and logical reasoning

07:02 - 07:04

It involves personal subjective experience

07:04 - 07:06

People define themselves in their actions

07:06 - 07:09

You only need to believe in advance and take the initiative to practice

07:09 - 07:11

To confirm this

07:11 - 07:11

belief

07:11 - 07:14

It does not need to be fully confirmed in reality.

07:14 - 07:15

To be truthful

07:15 - 07:18

Because belief itself is part of reality

07:18 - 07:21

And it is a reality that can create reality

07:21 - 07:23

Of course, this topic is far away

07:23 - 07:24

Let’s get back to our topic

07:25 - 07:25

Although we say

07:25 - 07:28

Everyone has this natural drive to learn.

07:29 - 07:30

But in the process of growing up

07:30 - 07:32

There are too many factors

07:32 - 07:35

This leads to the suppression and destruction of this learning drive.

07:35 - 07:38

First learn the growth and development of intrinsic motivation

07:38 - 07:40

Highly dependent on a rich environment

07:40 - 07:42

If a person is in a boring

07:43 - 07:44

Lack of stimulating environment

07:44 - 07:47

This desire to explore is easily extinguished.

07:47 - 07:49

Schools and Families in China

07:49 - 07:51

Often suppress this spontaneous vitality

07:51 - 07:53

and the ability to endure boredom

07:53 - 07:55

The child is said to be very sensible and obedient

07:55 - 07:58

Can sit still and concentrate

07:58 - 07:58

As

07:58 - 08:02

We talked about this in our June 7 video:

08:02 - 08:03

In an average Chinese family

08:04 - 08:06

Parents often like those who are quiet

08:06 - 08:08

Well-behaved child

08:08 - 08:10

And praised them for being mature and stable

08:10 - 08:13

He is like an adult at a young age

08:13 - 08:14

For example, many Chinese children

08:14 - 08:17

I like to lie on the sofa and watch TV at home.

08:17 - 08:19

Then the parents will come over.

08:19 - 08:22

Ask them to sit upright

08:22 - 08:24

It is said that a person should sit properly.

08:24 - 08:25

In the past, in the mall

08:25 - 08:27

I saw a child

08:27 - 08:30

Excitedly playing with a set of exquisite toys

08:30 - 08:32

As a result, his mother came over and kept reminding him

08:32 - 08:33

This shouldn't be played like this

08:33 - 08:34

It should be played like that

08:34 - 08:38

Finally, the mother squatted down and took the toy in her hand.

08:38 - 08:39

Demonstrate it to your children

08:39 - 08:42

Then the child became completely silent.

08:42 - 08:45

The excitement I had before was completely gone.

08:45 - 08:48

Human imagination and curiosity are very valuable.

08:48 - 08:52

If you don't get feedback for a long time, it will go out.

08:52 - 08:54

This long-term restraint and discipline in early life

08:54 - 08:55

Many Chinese

08:55 - 08:58

Showing a mature temperament

08:59 - 09:00

More importantly

09:00 - 09:02

The occurrence of learn drive

09:02 - 09:04

Need to be in a stress-free state

09:04 - 09:05

However

09:05 - 09:07

Most people understand learning

09:07 - 09:07

Limited to

09:07 - 09:10

How to complete the specified task within the limited time

09:10 - 09:12

This task-enhancing capability

09:12 - 09:14

Cha Cha and the real learn drive

09:14 - 09:16

It goes against the grain

09:16 - 09:19

For example, procrastinating until the last minute before the deadline to complete the assignment.

09:19 - 09:22

Even stayed up all night to prepare for the exam

09:22 - 09:23

These learning tasks

09:23 - 09:26

They are all oriented towards clear short-term goals.

09:26 - 09:27

It strengthens

09:27 - 09:29

It is precisely short-term memory

09:29 - 09:32

and the desire for huge returns in the short term

09:32 - 09:34

But it just destroys the long-term

09:34 - 09:36

Stable and autonomous learning drive

09:36 - 09:38

Under study pressure

09:38 - 09:40

People's short-term memory will be enhanced

09:40 - 09:43

However, this memory is easily lost after completing the task.

09:43 - 09:44

Quickly forgotten

09:44 - 09:47

Because of the lack of context and multiple reinforcement

09:47 - 09:48

for example

09:48 - 09:51

Examinations as a powerful external feedback

09:51 - 09:54

It destroys the mechanism by which individuals build internal feedback.

09:54 - 09:56

Students learned a

09:56 - 09:58

Sprint learning mode under pressure

09:58 - 10:00

This learning mode

10:00 - 10:00

Mainly activated

10:00 - 10:04

It is the brain's test positive network

10:04 - 10:06

That is TPN

10:06 - 10:08

TPN can mobilize people's attention

10:08 - 10:11

Focus on external stimuli and specific goals

10:12 - 10:15

Facilitates individuals to solve external tasks quickly and efficiently

10:15 - 10:16

However

10:16 - 10:18

TPN focuses on external issues

10:18 - 10:22

When it comes to long-term inner growth and wisdom

10:22 - 10:23

Playing a leading role

10:23 - 10:26

default mode network

10:26 - 10:28

That is DMN

10:28 - 10:29

However

10:29 - 10:32

DMN needs to be stress-free

10:32 - 10:33

To be activated

10:34 - 10:35

In a relaxed state

10:35 - 10:38

DMN makes it easier for people to think spontaneously

10:38 - 10:40

and creative associations

10:40 - 10:42

More inclined to focus on inner experience

10:42 - 10:44

For example, self-awareness affects one's psychological state

10:44 - 10:45

Introspection

10:45 - 10:47

Integrate memories, experiences, etc.

10:47 - 10:50

These activities are the core functions of the DMN

10:50 - 10:52

That is, when there is no clear mission

10:52 - 10:54

Will engage in erratic free association

10:54 - 10:58

Integrate seemingly unrelated information

10:58 - 11:00

Generate new ideas and concepts

11:00 - 11:03

This doesn't seem to produce immediate results.

11:03 - 11:06

But it involves a more advanced way of thinking.

11:06 - 11:06

I think

11:06 - 11:09

This is actually a reference to Aristotle's famous saying

11:09 - 11:10

“Leisure brings wisdom”

11:10 - 11:12

An empirical evidence

11:12 - 11:13

It can also be proved

11:13 - 11:16

Why do those who are driven by scarcity and fear

11:16 - 11:18

Often lacks mature self-awareness

11:18 - 11:20

So in my opinion

11:20 - 11:23

The key to learning can be summarized as wild growth

11:24 - 11:27

Savage means breaking all restraints

11:27 - 11:29

Just for your own satisfaction

11:29 - 11:32

All learning conditions, learning resources, and learning environment

11:32 - 11:35

The standard is whether it is conducive to wild growth.

11:35 - 11:38

As long as individuals can continue to generate spontaneous interests,

11:38 - 11:40

Curiosity and desire to explore

11:40 - 11:41

The best

11:41 - 11:42

On the other hand

11:43 - 11:44

All inhibitions, interruptions,

11:44 - 11:47

Factors that hinder the continuous expansion of people's spontaneous interests

11:47 - 11:49

All need to be improved

11:49 - 11:50

For example, we know

11:50 - 11:54

People naturally prefer fresh and rich stimulation

11:54 - 11:56

Tired of poverty and boredom

11:56 - 11:59

However, if people stay in boring, monotonous,

11:59 - 12:01

In a closed environment

12:01 - 12:02

Instead, it may be due to learned helplessness

12:02 - 12:04

And gradually got used to boredom

12:04 - 12:06

Even become afraid

12:06 - 12:08

A typical example of this is

12:08 - 12:09

Many Chinese high school students

12:09 - 12:11

After entering university

12:11 - 12:13

Although there is no rigid restraint like in high school

12:13 - 12:16

But they will repeat their high school life

12:16 - 12:19

Do the questions without reflection, and the test score will be

12:19 - 12:20

They think

12:20 - 12:23

Even though I don’t know what I really want to do

12:23 - 12:25

But when you are confused, go to the test point

12:26 - 12:28

It's better than not rolling and falling behind.

12:28 - 12:31

This does seem like a rational strategy.

12:31 - 12:33

But it is also short-sighted.

12:33 - 12:34

Wrapped in fear

12:34 - 12:36

The parties make short-term rational choices

12:37 - 12:38

In the long run

12:38 - 12:40

It is very irrational.

12:40 - 12:42

In this educational system

12:42 - 12:43

Many people have lost

12:43 - 12:46

The drive and patience to explore your own interests

12:46 - 12:48

Even afraid of openness and freedom

12:48 - 12:49

Longing to return to that

12:49 - 12:52

In a system where the self is completely regulated and constrained

12:52 - 12:54

This is indeed a pity.

12:55 - 12:57

This requires educators

12:57 - 13:00

Maintain a highly flexible and dynamic learning philosophy

13:00 - 13:02

Constantly starting from the perspective of the learner’s mind

13:02 - 13:05

Adjust your definition and understanding of learning

13:05 - 13:06

This process

13:06 - 13:07

Also inevitably

13:07 - 13:11

Accompanied by challenges and doubts about mainstream learning concepts

13:11 - 13:13

Many people may say

13:13 - 13:16

I hope my children can learn some more advanced

13:16 - 13:17

Deeper knowledge

13:17 - 13:20

However, the things that children like to study are very boring.

13:20 - 13:22

Trivial, simple

13:22 - 13:24

Although spontaneous

13:24 - 13:26

But is such spontaneity also worthy of respect?

13:27 - 13:28

The answer is of course yes

13:28 - 13:31

Learning without spontaneity is meaningless

13:31 - 13:32

We need to know

13:32 - 13:33

Any information

13:33 - 13:34

In fact, they all have huge

13:34 - 13:37

Minable and explainable depth

13:37 - 13:40

The key is not whether the information itself is deep or not.

13:40 - 13:42

It's the ability to dig and connect

13:43 - 13:45

Even the most ordinary thing

13:45 - 13:47

In the eyes of thoughtful people

13:47 - 13:49

It can also convey a very profound meaning.

13:49 - 13:52

For example, when children observe ants crawling

13:52 - 13:53

You might think of

13:53 - 13:56

Human social organization and division of labor and cooperation, etc.

13:56 - 13:57

certainly

13:57 - 14:00

Children may also have only a vague feeling

14:00 - 14:02

He has a hard time expressing himself

14:02 - 14:04

This feeling is highly personal.

14:04 - 14:07

It is something that the outside world cannot give a clear meaning to.

14:07 - 14:09

But one day in the future

14:09 - 14:10

This vague feeling

14:10 - 14:13

It will inspire him with some profound thoughts.

14:13 - 14:15

Friends who have experienced this kind of long-term thinking and introspection

14:15 - 14:17

You will definitely understand what I mean

14:17 - 14:18

We say

14:18 - 14:21

Emotion and rationality are actually connected

14:21 - 14:23

People without rich and delicate emotions

14:23 - 14:26

The development of rational thinking ability is bound to be hindered

14:26 - 14:27

Why do some people

14:27 - 14:30

Able to read complex and abstract theories

14:30 - 14:32

It can also evoke a strong sense of excitement

14:32 - 14:35

It is because he has accumulated a lot of developed

14:35 - 14:38

Delicate and rich fuzzy feeling

14:38 - 14:40

When this feeling reaches a certain level

14:40 - 14:44

He is able to understand complex and abstract theories

14:44 - 14:46

Entering a deep resonance feeling

14:46 - 14:47

He will feel

14:47 - 14:48

The theory

14:48 - 14:51

It can collide with many of his previous vague feelings

14:51 - 14:53

Then he can remember this theory firmly.

14:53 - 14:55

This collision of ideas

14:55 - 14:58

It is precisely inseparable from the long-term accumulation of the parties involved.

14:58 - 14:59

Rich in feeling

14:59 - 15:03

Therefore, profundity does not lie in whether knowledge is advanced or not.

15:03 - 15:05

It is the individual's ability to associate and see.

15:06 - 15:07

However

15:07 - 15:10

Such insights and associations are essentially uncontrollable

15:10 - 15:12

It cannot be regarded as a strategy.

15:12 - 15:13

Tips and Tools

15:14 - 15:14

for example

15:14 - 15:17

A netizen said that after watching Anthony's video today

15:18 - 15:20

Realize that free learning is a good way

15:20 - 15:22

Then tell yourself that from today on

15:22 - 15:24

I want freedom every day

15:24 - 15:26

Have a profound idea

15:26 - 15:27

This is not freedom.

15:28 - 15:30

The essence of freedom is unpredictability

15:30 - 15:32

Not pre-planned

15:32 - 15:34

Nor does it rely on any established standard

15:34 - 15:36

You can only do as much as possible

15:36 - 15:38

Create conditions for freedom for yourself

15:38 - 15:39

Then trust yourself

15:40 - 15:42

The meaning of free association is highly personal

15:42 - 15:45

Maybe the free association you generate

15:45 - 15:47

Does not conform to any established meaning

15:47 - 15:49

However, the more you believe unconditionally

15:49 - 15:51

My thoughts make sense

15:51 - 15:52

Don’t set any goals for yourself

15:52 - 15:53

Then finally

15:53 - 15:56

The better this free association ability can be,

15:56 - 15:58

We mentioned above

15:58 - 16:00

Questioning the concept of free learning

16:00 - 16:02

There are many questionable angles.

Unleashing the Wild Learning Drive: Embracing Spontaneity and Joy in Education

In today's insightful video, Anthony delves into the essence of learning and the fundamental drive that fuels it. As many netizens have asked, "How do you study and read? Why is your knowledge so broad?" Anthony shares his unique philosophy on efficient learning, critiquing traditional views that emphasize suffering and endurance in the pursuit of knowledge.

Learning Beyond Conventions: Embracing Spontaneity

Anthony challenges the prevalent belief that learning is solely task-oriented and driven by external rewards. He sheds light on the biological basis of the learn drive, rooted in the human brain's natural inclination to seek out new information and experiences. Drawing parallels with toddlers' innate curiosity, he highlights the importance of a rich, stimulating environment in fostering a genuine love for learning.

Nurturing the Learning Drive: From Short-Term Goals to Long-Term Fulfillment

Contrasting short-term task completion with long-term autonomous learning, Anthony explores how societal pressures and traditional educational systems often stifle individuals' intrinsic motivation to explore and discover. He delves into the role of the brain's default mode network in fostering creativity and introspection, advocating for a shift towards stress-free, open-ended learning to unlock one's full potential.

The Power of Spontaneity: Connecting Emotions and Rationality

Anthony underscores the interconnectedness of emotions and rationality in learning, emphasizing the importance of rich emotional experiences in enhancing one's ability to understand complex concepts. He highlights the value of free association and unstructured exploration in deepening one's comprehension and developing profound insights.

In a world that often prioritizes conformity and rigid learning frameworks, Anthony's refreshing perspective on embracing spontaneity, curiosity, and self-driven exploration offers a compelling alternative for those seeking to cultivate a lifelong love for learning. Join Anthony on his journey to uncover the transformative power of wild growth in education, where freedom, unpredictability, and personal discovery reign supreme.

Remember, true learning transcends the confines of conventional wisdom—it thrives in the boundless realm of creativity, curiosity, and unbridled exploration. So, dare to break free from the shackles of traditional learning and embark on a journey of wild growth and self-discovery. Embrace the joy of learning without constraints, and watch as your innate drive for knowledge propels you towards endless possibilities. Let the adventure begin!
