Michelle is a life coach, writer, and board member of Keshet and the Institute for Therapy through the Arts (ITA), both of whom have been featured on this show. Michelle speaks to many schools and students of her experience living with blindness. We also talk about how she and the disabled community are adapting to the world of Covid.

Hoje eu vou falar como gênios estudam e têm novas ideias.A ideia é a gente adaptar os métodos que eles usavam no nosso dia a dia. Vai ser um episódio cheio de histórias que tirei das biografias de Einstein, Thomas Edison, Poincaré, Salvador Dali, e da cientista Carol Dweck.Vou falar de 5 características que pessoas muito boas em uma área costumam usar, vai mais pro lado das ciências e matemáticas, mas você pode usar em qualquer coisa que use criatividade.Então os 5 pontos de hoje foram:1 – aprender um pequeno conceito por vezQuebre tarefas ou capítulos grandes em pedaços que você pode aprender em uma sessão de estudos2 – Mentalidade fixa e flexível Tenha uma mentalidade flexível, acredite que o esforço pode te levar onde você quiser ir3 – Ame o que você tá fazendo e por isso pratique muitoTenha prazer no estudo!4 – Alterne entre modo focado e difusoIntercale sessões de alta concentração, com intervalos bem legais.Além disso, durma bem, quem sabe você não descobre alguma coisa nos seus sonhos.5 – Muita imaginação – “Como ser o fóton”Use sua imaginação durante o estudo, vai ajudar a ir mais fundo na matéria, o famoso aprendizado profundo, e a memorizar melhor.

A coluna Direto da Fonte de Sônia Racy vai ao ar no Jornal Eldorado, de 2ª a 6ª feira às 7h50.
