I always considered myself a slow learner, even as a child I wanted people to slow down, but maybe I actually just wanted accuracy rather than sloppy understanding. Thanks for the episode. Great interview!🌟
Slow and steady wins a race. Heard this quote years back..Also have seen men doing fast things, like driving, they do not have patience to listen to thier partners /wife's you name it..I have experienced in life..Seen brain injury and met cancer patients,chemo, elderly yelling shouting etc, etc...
As an Autistic, I have always slowed my movements down to learn the rhythm and flow of the block/strike etc. I do the same when writing with a fountain pen.
Yup when my grandpa taught me to play guitar as a young kid, he said slower is faster and gave me the example of a professional gun slinger that they learn slow methodically and precise as how to draw the weapon without shooting yourself in the foot,speed will come naturally and with time.
Great video and information for those that have never reached that level of automatism. We must perform automatismically! Yes, this is a word I invented that has so much meaning pertaining to all skill sets whether it's playing musical instruments, martial arts, hand gun training or gymnastics. Performing automatismically is the key. Try picking up a guitar and constructing chord and note formations with your left hand and picking specific strings with your right hand. Once you've achieved that, memorize the words to a song and sing at the same time. Difficult? Yes, if you've never done it. When you've practiced enough so that you can do all these things simultaneously without hardly even thinking you will be performing them automatismically. Once you've reached this skill level now you can perform expressing real feeling and emotion using inflections through your voice and fingers. Congratulations! 😂
It is like how my Taichi master is teaching our class move by move very slowly. It took me several weeks to get used to learn how to shift my weight step by step. He mentioned that the slower we practice the better. Now, I understand why. Thanks!
My best Tai Chi instructor drilled this in to me "to know fast you must first know slow". And in practice what could be done in 5 min. He demanded this be done in 15 minutes & no less. It took me months to be able to do this. And my speed became Explosive!
Thank you. Songham 5 ATA Taekwondo is next. I passed for Songham 4 but just. I am 73 and having more cognitive challenges with learning the forms. I will take your counsel over the next two months of learning.
Great advice, applies very much to jazz, extremely demanding to become good at it and learn all the repertoire but you need a lot of patience to keep chipping away at it and take the learning process in small chunks and do it slowly.
Jim, this is fantastic! Thank you for bringing this content. I'm going to try apply this in the area of skill acquisition, like courses. Instead of blazing through, trying to soak up all the info, I'm going to slow it down.
that's amazing. as a musician i'm always traing to get better and learn how to behave appropriately and doing what i want to do with pleasure, fluidity and beauty. this knowledge is fundamental to improve all my practice. 🌞🎹🎨🎭🌈
Love the tee shirt. Power is the application of knowledge. I once saw a man with a tattoo, knowledge = power. I was wanting to point out that I believe his tattoo was not accurate, but he looked happy and I did not want to upset him. Martial taiji a large proportion of new learning is done slow. This is where the taichi slow from style became popular, but they did not continue their learning by applying what they learnt in the slow and applied it with speed. Kia ora (be well)
Quite a few systems use this learn slower method for training, besides Chinese internal martial arts already mentioned like Taijiquan. Such arts are Ninjutsu, Hapkidõ, Kajūkenbõ and Silat.
Love it! 2 of my favorite coaches! What a surprise! Never thought Jim was a TFT student! That is awesome! Slow is smooth... Keep up the great work, both of you gentlemen!!! 😁👍🏼💪🏼
How do you overcome boredom during the slow learning phase, What's the best technique, when you don't see results or you can do it 'you think' but how to make it more interesting so you don't lose the foundation, I have suffered I think from boredom and lack of consistency because I give in to the temptation to see quick results and lose interest. When you are bored, it's hard to have efficient learning. What do we do then Jim?
Fascinating, made me think of tai chi and qigong where they train very slow in order to be able to become fast but accurate and I definitely think motor skills such as dancers super benefit from the slow and accurate start. Edit: I've devoted my life this past year into language learning and I see so many language learner saying that natives speak too fast but I keep listening to native speakers only just like kids do and try to set the bar high for myself to hit the bar and with that challenge of basically throwing myself off a cliff into a level way too hard this video definitely triggered a moment of questioning if theres something else I could be doing. But I still think this mental type of learning unlike muscular training I'm fine to go in hard instead of slowing down. For muscular training though that takes motor skills I definitely like the slow first approach even before this video.
One of my Martial Arts teachers said... "Slow to Learn, Long to Forget" It is vital to go Slow when learning. Its where you see and understand what you are trying to do. Once you get the basic fundamentals and principles... followed by proper mechanics, then speed and power will come naturally! When you skip the basics, you can try and do it fast, but you will look Sloppy! The people who Know, will see right through all your faults and lack of proper training.
I learn in refereeing football that not to get on top off the play.stay back a ways an u get time to see the whole play, an this allows time to make the correct call
The amount of times i say this to people learning the drums, i have lost count! So many delay their progress by just trying to blag it at high speed right out the gate. At best they will end up executing the wrong thing, at worst it will just be a complete mess of nothing.
If you understand all the words in a sentence then you can read sentence faster but if your fundamentals(meaning of word) are weak then its not worth it..
Shivam Kushwaha I recommend “Reading With The Right Brain” by David Butler. Comprehension is KEY. His approach is different than traditional speed reading techniques that have been around for some time, and all are mostly a different version of the Evelyn Wood program. It has helped me, as I have used the Evelyn Wood approach, and found that Reading with the Right Brain helped me more. Cheers!
our fundamentals have pretty setup ever since we started reading, so we are already in the walk phase, hence he need to improve it by speeding it up :)
This is why Taichi is the best martial art out there, the slower the better. Actually the more time you spend in static posture, the better you train your brain to move in and out of those postures. Check out on youtube Zhan Zhuang or "standing like a tree".
As a native English speaker, I am here to help you in this one. I want to learn speaking English faster. Does that mean that you want to learn to the language in shorter time or you want to be able to speak English fast as in IwanttospeakEnglishreallyfast? I struggle with learning languages and small errors can totally change the meanings of what was said, it could also lead to conflict.
Speaking is different than writing and listening to English. I’d maybe find someone to Skype along with in English, or have a daily conversation with someone else who is also learning to speak English.
Hey you, native English speaker... I'm Renan From Brazil , I've been learning English for 2 years and some days ago , I had an ideia of speed up the velocity of the videos to improve my listening skills Cuz I know people don't speak too fast like 1.5x faster So it's getting good to understand natural English conversation in normal speed But this video says that you need to slow down your velocity when you are learning ,now I got confused What should I do? Note : when it's 1.5x of velocity my comprehension is about 70% ( I believe it's gonna improve ) Normally, 90%, 95%
Hi Jim, I love your videos a lot but I always feel that your videos never tell us how to do step 1 ,2,3 instead a lot of conversation is on the problems itself. Can you teach us the steps to improve our concentration?
I know you gave specific instructions i'm going to go slower and softer giving my gf a back rub I always go too hard and fast and my hands always cramp up really bad.
All I know is what I see. I see beginning students rushing from A to get to Z and most will forget the letters in between. Students want the end results quick, you have to slow them down until their brain picks up all the finer points of the technique.
Hey Jim, only been following your stuff for a short while now, how is your sleep (heard you have sleep apnia through a video interview that watched yesterday)? hope it's improved for you.
tai chi works on this concept...if you ever saw a guy who was trained to fight with tai chi, they are incredibly fast. I met one guy who trained boxers--so much speed in a 60 yr old man it was crazy. That said, you can't just learn the tai chi form and practice it to become a good fighter. You'd be a laughing stock. You have to learn the applications and body mechanics and train with full speed sparring eventually--I have never seen a tai chi class that does this.
Slow is smooth
Smooth is fast
Fast is deadly ❤️
Mantra of many spec-ops
The movie of my life shall be entitled Too Slow too Slothy
I always considered myself a slow learner, even as a child I wanted people to slow down, but maybe I actually just wanted accuracy rather than sloppy understanding. Thanks for the episode. Great interview!🌟
yes me too , but when I learned it...I knew it really good and was able to teach others which helped me learn it even deeper.
Slow and steady wins a race. Heard this quote years back..Also have seen men doing fast things, like driving, they do not have patience to listen to thier partners /wife's you name it..I have experienced in life..Seen brain injury and met cancer patients,chemo, elderly yelling shouting etc, etc...

Perfect for teaching technical rock climbing; climb with your mind, learn moves, speed will follow
Yup when my grandpa taught me to play guitar as a young kid, he said slower is faster and gave me the example of a professional gun slinger that they learn slow methodically and precise as how to draw the weapon without shooting yourself in the foot,speed will come naturally and with time.
Professional gunslingers were a product of television.
Taiji are masters of it , well the shou huo lineage . They practice incredibly slow and a little abstract but the energy is delivered in a sneeze
I'll be learning different style of double bass drumming than I'm used to in the next week. We've done that technique in music for years. It works!

Make lists
I will use this to improve my consistency of thinking and acting conciously according to who and how I want to be. Thanks for the episode!

Useful one! Thanks Jim and Tim for sharing ur thoughts on learning👍
like van Herrigel "Zen in the art of archery". After 6 months they gave him an arrow.
GREAT BOOK. KUDOS TO YOU FOR KNOWING ABOUT IT.
SO MANY DO NOT!!!!
Interesting facts, thanks for your advice sir! So inspiring! 😃👍
Hi *is there any tft training in France or in the paris area?
thanks
What was the name of the book mentioned early in the video?
I have to pass my math exam to be a teacher! Thank you so helpful!
Good information and builds on theold saying that perfect practice makes perfect. Anyone have links to further reading?
I learn in refereeing football that not to get on top off the play.stay back a ways an u get time to see the whole play, an this allows time to make the correct call
I use to learn martial arts body mechanics real slow and smooth and my striking is really fast
Read a book called The Talent Code by Daniel Coyle. He studied this very concept all over the world. It works
so hard to clean the slate and start again. i'm doing that with banjo playing. i screwed up by playing too fast.
Use your peripheral vision and you will be faster.
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast!
Love this!
Serait-il possible de rajouter dans vos options sous-titre d'autres langues comme le Français, l'Allemand, l' Espagnol et bien d'autres
Plan to learn fast by going slower learning to juggle. I have struggled for months trying.
🤣
How would we apply this to reading faster?
Jim?
Great vid!! Thank you!!🤙
Crawl, Walk, Run Learning Mode. Mantra : Smooth is Fast , Fast is Smooth…
The amount of times i say this to people learning the drums, i have lost count! So many delay their progress by just trying to blag it at high speed right out the gate. At best they will end up executing the wrong thing, at worst it will just be a complete mess of nothing.
If you pass USMLE step 1,step 2ck,step2cs within 6 month then all will admire you as a genius.Can you do it Jim kwick within 6 month?
AWESOME INFO !!!!
Amazing!!!
⭐⭐⭐Great Shirt Jim!
Hi
systema the russian martial art the training is done at low speed
How is it different from the reading speed ? why cant we apply this method on reading though you said as speed increases so as comprehension.
If you understand all the words in a sentence then you can read sentence faster but if your fundamentals(meaning of word) are weak then its not worth it..

@@GabrielLopez-jg3sb ok Thank you. I'll check it out!
our fundamentals have pretty setup ever since we started reading, so we are already in the walk phase, hence he need to improve it by speeding it up :)
Also Learning in Reverse has real benefits
Wayne Salvador what benefits?
In music college we are taught speed comes with accuracy
Jim i wanna ask..if AI project like neuralink works perfectly.. will there b need for memory techniques in studies
This is the concept behind Tai Chi Chuan.......it is supposed to be an actual fighting art....
This is why Taichi is the best martial art out there, the slower the better. Actually the more time you spend in static posture, the better you train your brain to move in and out of those postures. Check out on youtube Zhan Zhuang or "standing like a tree".
wrong...definitely not the best martial arts, pull your head in mate
I'm going to learn HIIT stationary biking very, very, very slowly in slow motion.
Story of my life...
Thanks for that episode, I guess that's going to be very helpful !
1 hr and no dislikes God is watching us.
Posted 2hrs ago and still no dislikes:)
I wanna learn speaking english faster but I'm too busy with my school lessons 😢😢😢

If you don't have time during the day, you could play an English language course on UA-cam whilst you fall asleep and take it in subliminally.

Makes me think of Tai Chi.
*listens to video at 1.5x*
Is it good?
What do you mean with it?
it's like a joke
I’m going to apply this to learning belly dance.
