SLOW LEARNING
Episode 296
Thursday, 9 January, 2025
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I discuss the importance of "slow learning" - especially in a culture that’s become so focused on “fast outcomes” and “quick results”. I share about my own experiences of needing enough time to truly understand and integrate new information, rather than just quickly consuming it. I make the case that true learning, comes from first-hand experience and the process of acquiring knowledge through implementation and not just passively ingesting other people’s content. I also reflect on how some learning methods have changed over time - and I contrast this modern approach with traditional apprenticeship models. I believe that true knowledge requires effort and patience - the willingness to spend time with material, think deeply about it, and allow it to percolate. Which is one of the reasons why I’m not a fan of the “TLDR” culture that we seem to find ourselves in.This is an invitation to forgo the instant gratification and superficial understanding that so often dominates today. Ultimately, I encourage people to adopt a more "vertical" approach to learning and personal growth - going deeper rather than wider, and being willing to invest the time and attention required for true learning and understanding.KEY POINTS:• Embracing slow, deep learning• Resisting cultural obsession with speed• True knowledge requires patience + effort• Regurgitation does not equal understanding• Cultivating long-term learning relationships• Prioritizing Depth over Breadth• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.
