Jim Kwik explains how your physical space shapes how well you learn. A cluttered environment clutters your mind, so he recommends a dedicated, distraction-free area that's well-lit and organized. Your outer space reflects your inner state.
Your surroundings can significantly impact your learning effectiveness and efficiency. Your external world is a reflection of your internal world. You organize things on the outside and it gets clear on the inside. Create a dedicated learning space that ideally is just free from distractions, as many as you could mitigate and control. This could be a specific desk in your home, or you're at the library, or at the office, or even maybe a quiet coffee place. And Make sure you ensure that your learning environment is ideally well-lit, it's equipped with necessary supplies for your learning journey, and it's conducive to concentration. A tidy environment equals a tidy mind. So Marie Kondo your mind.
