Before joining this program, as a student, I've always needed to memorize so many things especially during the exams, and my way of doing this is through rote learning.
After joining this program, Jim makes learning so much fun and interesting that the things you learn stick with you for a long time.
This is definitely beneficial for us students as we often need to memorize a lot of information in a given amount of time.
Not only did I gained this special skill that was taught by Jim, but his profound quote resonates with me. It goes like this: "Whether you can or you can't, either way you are right." The quote struck a chord in me as I know that this is true. Now the funny thing is, this quote can be implemented also in our daily lives, so I decided to apply this in my life.
One day, my dad decided that I should learn to ride a bike, and as a 17 year old, I was embarrassed as this was a skill that is supposed to be learnt when I was a little kid. However, I never did want to try when I was a little kid as I was too scared to fall. So this time, I decided to try and my dad had put on training wheels for 2 days.
On the third day, I decided to take off my training wheels and tried to ride a 2 wheeled bike. Well, it wasn't easy, and I almost fell many times. I was ready to give up and asked my dad to put the training wheels back on, until I remembered Jim's quote: "Whether you can or you can't, either way you're right." So I told myself that I can do it, and after a few minutes, I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO BALANCE MY BIKE! I AM FINALLY ABLE TO RIDE A BIKE!
My dad and I were so happy and quite surprised frankly as I never thought I could learn to ride a bike in 2 days.
Look what a change in mindset can do to your life!
So I just wanted to say thank you so much Jim, for not only sharing your superpower in terms of academics but also learning in life as well! Also, thank you so much Vishen for having this wonderful platform, Mindvalley, for everyone in the world to unlock their fullest potential in life :)
