Knowledge will rapidly solidify! I found a ‘study method’ like magic.

Recently, I've been studying a lot about capital policy and taxation.
The reason is that I'll be investing a lot of that kind of knowledge into the next service I'm releasing.
By the way, capital policy refers to matters concerning a company's shares and so on.
Taxation is about taxes, so many people might already understand it.

And so, I am enthusiastically absorbing new knowledge.

And then, I noticed something a bit interesting.
Specifically, it's what's called 'study methods'.

Even though I say I'm studying, I didn't originally start for the purpose of studying.
I was creating and inputting content for the new service.
However, as I lacked knowledge regarding the content I was dealing with, I was creating it while researching.

The idea is that while creating the service, I'm continuously inputting new knowledge into myself as well.
Later on, it will be supervised by professionals in capital policy and taxation.

As part of that, there's the task of creating PowerPoint presentations.
I'm continuously turning what I learned myself into PowerPoint presentations.
Not just PowerPoint, but I also write it down in sentences as text.
I had to turn the same knowledge into content from quite various angles.

Then, suddenly in the middle, I noticed something.

While I was working, I realized that my brain was absorbing knowledge unusually well.

I'm continuously carrying out mundane tasks, but.
I suddenly realized something.

Huh? Am I acquiring new knowledge at a pretty amazing pace?

I'm incredibly fast at learning.
Before I knew it, I've become knowledgeable enough to discuss it.
Capital policy and tax affairs are supposed to be complex.
If I had studied normally, it would take a considerable amount of time to learn it.

However, I now can probably teach others.
If I'm looking at PowerPoint, I believe I can discuss it for a good while.

In the past, when I did proper studying, it was nothing like that at all.
To my embarrassment, my high school grades were so low that it was quicker to count from the bottom.
On top of that, the Japanese university I nominally attended was the lowest of the low-tier.
From there, I worked hard and made up for a lot, but…

Nevertheless, I had never absorbed 'knowledge' so quickly.
Despite that, this time it had seeped into my brain unconsciously.
When it suddenly dawned on me, I thought, 'What is this?'

I might have found a wonderful study method without realizing it.
So, I reflected a little on what I had done.

Perhaps this is a really good study method.

Now, I will explain the steps I took to study.
Having said that, it wasn't so much studying as it felt more like I was creating content.

Firstly, I made an effort to quickly understand the basics from the internet and books.
I mostly skim books, and I search for keywords on the internet.

Next, before I understand 100%, I put the content into PowerPoint.
Instead of dividing it into many slides, it's one slide per piece of knowledge.
I create slides, keeping in mind the easiest content for someone to understand.

This time, where is the core of what I want to say, and what is the conclusion?
Once I've simply written the main conclusion I want to convey, next, I write the explanation.
I write by making diagrams or text, while exploring easy-to-understand layouts.

Then, as I write, my thoughts become more and more organized.
By the time I finish creating the PowerPoint, I somehow understand the overall picture.

And once I've finished creating the PowerPoint, next, I transcribe it into text.
I do the writing in the form of explaining the content of the PowerPoint.
Then, as I write the text this time, questions I hadn't noticed before sometimes emerge.
I immediately research anything I have questions about online and transcribe it into the text as a supplement.

In this way, by creating the PowerPoint and the text, it's one set.

Then, by the time everything is finished, I have a considerable understanding of the target knowledge.
A quantity of knowledge that I would never acquire if I had studied normally is inputted.
What's more, it would probably be possible even if I were told to "convey this to someone with this PowerPoint" right now.

How should I put it, learning itself is so smooth it's almost fun.

Why, with this study method, did the knowledge stick in my head?

In my own way, I tried to think about why knowledge came in so quickly.
Since I'm teaching various things, I also became interested in the study method itself.

As a conclusion, it can be considered that it's because 'I performed input and output simultaneously'.
Moreover, after thinking about how to convey it clearly to others.

First, I organize what I understood clearly in my mind.
From there, by outputting it as a 'diagram', visual understanding deepens.
What was input is clearly interpreted and settles as a diagram, isn't it?

Furthermore, from there, I write it down as text so that I can speak about it deeply with words.
On top of that, since questions also arise along the way, I research related knowledge and write it down.
By writing it down as text, not only does knowledge settle, but the breadth of knowledge also expands.

In this way, by the time I've written down the text, I understand the knowledge at a deep level.

It was a completely accidental discovery.
When learning English conversation, I often practiced repeatedly.
Is this time's method like outputting knowledge in multiple forms and repeating it?

Even for myself, knowledge came in more smoothly than I imagined, and I am surprised.
If it continues like this, I seem to be able to input new knowledge one after another.

Furthermore, since work also progresses, it's a story of killing two birds with one stone.

If knowledge comes into my head so smoothly, I wish I had realized it sooner.
So, I'll share what I happened to find this time, which seems like a study method.

I think anyone can probably do it.
If there's anything you want to learn, please do try it.
I think it might be a reasonably effective study method.
