Why Smart People Don’t Memorize (Feynman’s Secret Method)

Описание: Most people think intelligence means having a great memory.
But the smartest minds don’t rely on memorization — they rely on understanding.

Inspired by the learning philosophy of Richard Feynman, this video reveals why memorizing facts is the slowest path to mastery — and what high-level thinkers do instead.

In this video, you’ll learn:
• Why memorization creates fragile knowledge
• The difference between recognition and real understanding
• The “explain it simply” method
• How to identify gaps in your knowledge
• A practical system to learn faster and deeper

If you want to stop cramming and start thinking clearly, this is for you.

Understanding beats memory. Every time.
