#epistemology #rationality # [[Epistemic status]] #shower-thought # Focus is interest #to-digest If you cannot focus on an activity, action, book, it's because you're not interested enough in it. If you are not interested it's because you don't understand enough If you want to read [[Quantum physic]], you need a minimum understanding of the underlying [[Compound Knowledge]] If you want to read [[Kant]] you need to read a bit of [[Philosophy|philosophy]] before If you want to implement a [[Deep learning]] algorithm, you need to get to like [[Programming|programming]] When you have interest, [[Philosophy/Rationality/Learning|learning]] is a lot more efficient, so start from the bottom. If you can't read a book, it's because you don't like the topic, if you can't learn biology is because you don't like the process, if you can't focus on [[Programming|programming]] it's because you don't understand it enough and thus don't like it.
