Introduction
Now that you have an idea of how the Impossible Academy is run and maintained, it is important to understand WHY you should learn about crypto. In this lesson, we will urge you to seek deep and understand your very own reasons and motivations for starting this learning journey.
Why You Should Learn About Crypto
There are plenty of reasons for learning about crypto.
- Do you want to have an understanding of this new technology?
- Are you interested in new investment opportunities?
- Are you looking for a job in crypto?
- Do you want to contribute to a global technology?
Whatever your reasons are, hold on to them and let it motivate you to learn as much as you can. Remind yourself of the end goal every time you are tempted to stop.
Your mindset will play an important role in how you persevere through this. Some of us might be tempted to give up as soon as we find a challenge that can’t be solved on the first try.
However, this way of thinking does not benefit anyone. Many great products and services exist today because their creators persevered through challenges and obstacles. We might not have bagless vacuum cleaners if Sir James Dyson threw in the towel after failing multiple times (5,126 times over 15 years to be exact).
While not everyone has 15 years to spare, it is important to embrace the mindset that failure is not the end. Instead, we should take it as a learning experience and nurture our persistence and grit.
The Learning Process
We have a few tips for you to make the learning process as efficient as possible:
- Firstly, go at a comfortable pace
- Don’t cram as much as possible into one study session. It will be more effective if you space out the curriculum into multiple sessions.
- Studying at the right time is also going to help you
- It might sound like a good idea to study on the train on the way home from work. However, if the crying baby and loud noises are going to distract you, you are better off finding a more suitable time.
- Write notes that you understand
- Pretend that you are going to teach someone and organize the material into your own words. Even if you aren’t going to teach anyone, it will help you to understand and remember better.
