Also TF2, GTA and a single WoW painting. Nice idea, but the art style itself doesn't do it for me.

So my talk will be from the point of view of a practitioner who is constantly engaged in tough learning. It will be anecdotal, based on my experience and the experience of others, not based on well-grounded scientific studies.

Everything I will say is common sense, all the fundamental ideas are ideas you will have heard before.

FFS.

In my opinion, the single most important principle of effective learning is that it requires a strong sense of purpose and meaning.

What on earth does that even mean? It's nothing more then a "magic bullet". There is nothing there that will help anyone think...

Second principle is common sense - although I can't say for sure there might be psychology that suggests "long term visions" or planning could ultimatly be detrimental.

the third principle, namely, that the most effective way of changing your own behaviour is to change your social role, if necessary, by creating social roles for ourselves that reinforce behaviours we want.

Dodgy and not an option open to the vast majority of people. Standard self-help "reinvent" yourself guff.

Also what is extreme about this?
