You are not dumb, you just need to learn how to learn ...

from Reclaiming Bossy · host Maahika Singh

If I could talk about only one thing for the rest of my life, it would be this: learning how to learn.This is the skill that changed everything for me. It’s what helped me go from being an average student to making the Dean’s List at university, graduating top of my class, and having my dissertation nominated for a national prize. It’s how I taught myself Spanish from scratch, despite not being able to learn French after seven years of school. It’s the foundation that helped me start my business, launch this podcast, move countries, and keep growing.In this episode, I break down what it really means to “learn to learn.” I talk about how no one is dumb, we just have to understand how our brains absorb information best. I always felt like a super average student but during COVID, I discovered different learning styles (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic) and realised that when you learn to teach yourself things in a way that works for you, you can learn anything…In this episode we’ll cover:1) How to figure out whether you’re a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner2) How to actually improve your memory and retain more of what you study3) The formula for building consistency and self-discipline4) Practical methods for teaching yourself new skills, subjects, and even languagesToday´s episode is deeply personal and also one of the most practical I’ve ever recorded. These are the exact methods that took me from struggling with languages to fluently speaking Spanish, from average grades to thriving at university, and from confusion to clarity in my career. I’d love for you to listen and then share what resonates with you.Comment your thoughts below or in the podcast reviews so we can keep learning together as a community.Follow Empower Sounds Podcast:Instagram: @empowersoundsTikTok: @EmpowerSoundsPodcastFor collaborations and inquiries: [email protected] here on YouTube for new episodes every Monday and comment below your learning style or any questions you have :)
