Jim Kwik explains how mindset shapes what we achieve. Even with the best techniques, beliefs like "I'm not smart enough" will hold you back. Shifting your assumptions about yourself comes before learning anything new.
Your mindset are the set of assumptions and attitudes about that thing. Let's say your attitude assumptions about reading. You can learn a great method on how to read faster, but if your mindset is, I'm not smart enough, reading's not important, then you're still stuck in that box. So first thing we need to do is address our mindset, the set of assumptions and attitudes we have about our goal, and the set of assumptions and attitudes we have about what? Ourselves. You could grab a great methodology, but if your mindset is, I'm not smart enough, I'm not capable of it, I don't deserve it, then you're still gonna be stuck in that box.
