Summary
We often talk about unlearning old way in order to acquire new knowledge, but in this entertaining video Destin Sandlin shows us just how hard it is to unlearn something we have deeply rooted in our brains. In this exploratory activity, we face just how rigid our thinking really is, and the little plasticity our minds have. A truly valuable resource for anyone learning agile, and trying to unlearn what they have been thought though years of structured school learning.
Takeaways
- It is much more difficult to unlearn than it is to acquire new knowledge.
- Our assumptions of difficulty are based on our experiences, and may be very far from the truth.
- The process of unlearning sometimes is just replacing old biases.
