Well, I'm a fast learner since I was born. I still am. Always learning faster than the others on the class, etc. (A little bit disturbing to them maybe...).

For me the key is attention, not even curiosity. I learn fast things that I don't even like but I need to learn...

For instance in school, high school and university I always was listening attentively to the teacher and trying to understand what he says. Not just the words.

A very important thing is... to know what's important and what it's not.

I remember that If one day I didn't attended a class I had to ask someone for their notes.
The first thing I had to do was to eliminate all the things that were noted that weren't important at all.
People told me that I knew how to study, or maybe what to study.
Perhaps that's why I'm here...

I read very fast. I sometimes pick a paper or so and I read it and a person next to me tells me I could not have read it yet. I don't know how I get to it. It has not been a special technique... well.. it might have been some of what Steve talks about, I don't know.
