Refer to this Article for a Remider of How To Learn
By w̶i̶e̶l̶d̶l̶i̶n̶u̶x̶.̶c̶o̶m̶ author Morgan Jassen
I refer back to this article when I want to remind myself how to learn:
"Learning to Learn" https://hbr.org/2016/03/learning-to-learn
The article says these four traits/habits are important to learning, and furthermore implies that anyone can improve themselves (get better) in these areas: "...aspiration, self-awareness, curiosity, and vulnerability..."
One trait of those who learn well in this article is curiosity or "...they constantly think of and ask good questions...".
Furthermore, this reminds me of what I heard in audiobook of "The Opposite of Spoiled"* (Ron Lieber et al.) -- he mentions a story of a parent who asks their child each evening (paraphrasing) '(child's name here), Did you ask a good question today?'
The parent was trying to develop and instill the child's sense of curisosity.
