Visualization, memory, reading and research skills
The capacity to reduce complicated concepts to clear, understandable frameworks is a crucial competence in the information-rich world of today. In this process, logical markers are a vital tool that help people effectively represent, evaluate, and apply abstract ideas. These markers reduce complex relationships, making them simpler to comprehend and convey, from the symbolic notation …

Tools that can effectively bridge the gap between precision and abstraction are typically necessary for comprehending complex systems, enabling us to model, forecast, and optimize results. This course examines fundamental ideas including state machines, graphs, and inference; each offers distinct viewpoints and approaches to handling complex issues. These tools are crucial for examining dynamically related …

Textual analysis and numerical data alone are frequently insufficient to comprehend and manage complex systems. Visual tools like flowcharts and feedback diagrams are now indispensable for streamlining complex procedures and facilitating efficient communication between different fields. These graphic representations aid in capturing the dynamic interactions inside systems, whether they are used in software development, psychology, …

Although mathematics is sometimes seen as a strict and unchanging field, it is actually a language that is always changing and intended to express the complexity of the cosmos. It bridges the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world applications while adjusting to the needs of human advancement. Mathematics has undergone constant change to satisfy the …

There are many articles on Quora about smart people thinking differently. Something similar can be found here. Since I have my own opinion on the subject, please allow me to share. Things that work People with very high intelligence will likely have exceptional education – formal or autodidactic. They will probably excel both in math …
Memorizing tables is hard. Fortunately, there are not many people that need to memorize many tables and not many tables that most of us need. There are some adaptations for regular mental structures and some specific memory structures which work best with tables. Please consider the pros and cons of each approach. Tables of contents …
Person-action-object visualizations are incredibly useful. Yet they are typically artificial – unless used with long numbers and history. Using PAO with long numbers is central to memory sports. PAO of history requires additional explanation. In a way, some legal and accounting documents follow very similar structure with few adaptations. Want to explore and enhance your …

Mindmaps and mental palaces are essentially two-dimensional structures. This allows for simple navigation: linear and lateral itineraries. 99% of the time this is more than enough. Articles are fixed: once we place an article in a mental structure it is not likely to move. Projects are hierarchical. We can move up and down the hierarchy …

Logical markers do not require special learning, as we already learned them in schools for more than a decade. If you are not using them to remember things, it is a psychological barrier. Once you try, they will feel more natural and intuitive than any other memory construct. My favorite logical marker There is only …

Sometimes I struggle with naming what I do. Speedwriting and research masterclasses are examples of my bad branding, and I hope to rebrand them in near future. While I might be unhappy with the course names, I am definitely excited about their content. So I tell you what. I will describe the content of the …
