      Thanks for your question and interest in the monthly "Inner Circle."
      Are you on my email list? I open it up every once in awhile.
      There's a meeting coming up on January 9th (for me here in Australia). That would be the 8th in North America.
      If you're not subbed that way, shoot me an email and I can send you the details.
      Thanks again and talk soon!

    Well said. As Bruce Lee had told his students “don’t practice what you were taught, practice what you Learned”. Big difference. I summarize everything I read in my own words and adding my own personal experiences to the summary.

      Thanks so much for checking this out and wonderful that you're going back to finish what you started. The psychological and practical benefits of doing that are likely to be immense.
      When doing my PhD, I was strongly tempted to give in. But I pushed through because I knew that if nothing else, it would forever be complete. If I hadn't finished, I probably would have gone back eventually, or done another one somewhere else. The Zeigarnik effect is a powerful thing.

    Hey Dr Anthony,
    Sometimes age is a blessing-while simultaneously being a burden. This is why I concur wholeheartedly with your points. I stepped outside my comfort zone , doing podcasting for the last 12 years. I reflect quite often, again partially due to chronology, but your points on note taking and journaling are so key. I continue to revisit the completed MMM Master Course, and I am again back at the great MMM Free PDF gateway to the superb online MMM. I have so many journals, I have to utilize index cards to remember the contents of the journals. Just kidding. Another great informative video. Namaste and Many Thanks.

    Nice, I do enjoy the longer content and this video is one that I would like to watch a second time around to fully digest all of the advice, and I do like the semester way approaching learning. For what it's worth, I have always disliked 'S.M.A.R.T.' goals so I'll happy go with T.E.R.M.S. instead! The new infographics are brill by the way.

      I'm already encountering a challenge though... given how difficult it is to put the core challenges into words. It's always the tricky thing with Bruno because he wants you to think... and think in such a way that the knowledge is earned.
      It's really just the same memory techniques at the core, but when derived in a different way, they seem to take on new meanings and value in the individual practitioner.

      There have been attempts to create a general advisory board for memory as well amongst those who do know enough, but nothing I'm aware of has come to fruition. I could go on at length with speculations about why and how things are the way they are, but rest assured that it's not for a lack of trying that they aren't more unified and better as a result.

    @robjfulton 12 дней назад +1

    I learned a lot from this masterclass. Thank you for putting in the time. It introduced an altered way of learning structures different from what I practice now. One main point is the emphasis on summary memorization that people seem to think is smart. The fact is, you can easily tell when people live in “summary land.” Mastering orchestral composition requires thousands of hours of practice, yet you can read thousands of summaries and feel like you “know” the subject. This is unfortunate for those who skip this video.
    That said, depth in multimodal categories is not only a requirement for learning but also for practicing it. Whatever it takes to reach the point where one can summarize without embarrassment-I am extremely high right now.
    The jabs against those lazy bastards who want the summary of shit to get ideas is bunk.
    Lastly narrative above is all said with levity and deep passion for memory and the GENIUS of Anthony Metivier!

      Bringing in music is really great - thanks for that.
      I was just telling someone who symphonic I find Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain.
      The only way I could ever feel that way is the result of actually listening to how composers construct their symphonies, plus reading Mann in detail to catch the wave and ride it to the crescendos.
      There is such sadness when reflecting upon how much is missed by those who dismiss.

It's amazing to see how Pavlov fits in. So many people used the word "ideas" of Locke as in idealism and the French Ideologues. Well Plato? So maybe an analytical book? The book on the way is going to cover material mostly of the 20 years prior to 1995 is what I understand. We'll see. Definitely not anything full of algebraic formulas. Something that connects our current computer age to past ideas of how the mind works. Real real deep.

    First of all I have to say it’s really important what you’re saying in the beginning about AI and it’s use
    There are so many pitfalls and I did watch a “60 minutes” video in which they show the exploitation of tech workers in Kenia
    They suffer psychologically because they have to clean all the garbage material which shouldn’t be relevant to the AI platforms
    And they’re very underpaid
    2nd of all I think you’re one of the last persons who want to keep matter in their own hands
