Sometimes “Genius” is not “Genius”, those who have the ability to acquire good knowledge right from birth but are lazy, do not practice, cannot become world greats. . People are called genius partly because of their natural talent, but a large part of it lies in their habits, ways of thinking and acting on a daily basis.
Van Gogh is a famous painter, Mozart is a famous composer, Marie Curie is a famous physicist/chemist. But surely if they do not have a passion for the subjects they pursue, do not practice every day, there will not be great success for billions of people to know their names.
So can we draw out their “small” daily habits to apply in life, helping us to have a better ability to learn and acquire knowledge? The answer is yes!

Have you ever stopped and pondered why you do the things you are doing?
This question is not just for everyday tasks, it can be answered with simple sentences like “because it helps me to live” or “it’s my passion” . Those are only initial answers, but the answers must still be found by deeper reflection.
What motivates you every day? (Image: Getty).
What is it about this World that motivates you to live every day? What makes you angry? Are you living the ‘perfect’ life you set out to? If your life is perfect, what bad things can make this go away? These questions will help you think more deeply than ordinary thoughts, helping your mind become clear. When you have found your life purpose, your life will be simpler.
You can learn a lot from the Outer World, but conversely, have you understood your Inner World well? Ask yourself a tough question every day and take 10 minutes to answer it, helping you get to know yourself better.
Taking the time to read the news online every day is a great way to stay out of date. You can also learn a lot of new skills from other people over the Internet for free.
Reading just 15 pages a day will get you far in life. (Photo: Bill Gates).
But certainly the Internet will not be able to completely replace books. This article can give you a small amount of information, make you think but can not compare with good books, can draw you into great science fiction or interesting research. .
Reading helps you understand the mind of the writer, as well as finding new ideas from what you read. This is when the mind works, helping it become more sensitive. If you spend only 20 minutes a day reading 15 pages of a book, you can read 15 to 20 books a year!
It is said that just one good book can change a person’s life, so why not give yourself 15-20 opportunities to change in a year, with just 20 minutes a day? This is a small investment of money and time but with a huge ‘return’!
When you dedicate your mind and body to a task, you are opening a new door to mastering your mind. This is a more effective way of learning than reading and thinking.

You might think that when a musician is trying to practice a musical instrument, or an artist is caught up in a new piece of work, they are applying all the skills they have learned before to create a product. certain, but things do not stop there. In a state of deep concentration, when we are challenged by an activity, we are also honing our mental machinery.
We can improve the ability to absorb information, or in other words this is the process of “learning how to learn”. In a World that is constantly changing, it is very necessary to train ourselves, so that we can learn faster. Whether it’s fun, study or work, take 30 minutes to focus ‘extremely’, helping us do it even a little bit better each day.

Perhaps each of us has done these things to some degree. But through this article, I want people to take them more seriously.
Many people spend 10 minutes to reflect and question themselves but do not ask difficult questions; many people spend 20 minutes reading every day, but do not know how to choose good and useful books; Many people use 30 minutes to focus to train their mind, but do not have a clear direction, or have distractions placed around them.
Smart people don’t suddenly become smart, it’s just that they do small things every day that others overlook, and then one day achieve the big things they want. Not everyone is born a genius, but everyone can be smarter !
