I think there is a significant difference between the way people actually learn and the way they are taught. It’s actually an interesting way to start a session to ask participants to: Think of something you’re good at. How did you really learn to become good at that?

There’s always a lot of dispute about the value of a formal education. Most of what people learn comes from many other sources including experience and practice. Right now there are 18 billionaires, 7 Presidents and 10 nobel prize winners who were either college or high school drop outs. I did a little research to [...]
