Habits in Ways of Learning Remain Even as You Age
Learning in your forties and fifties changes how it proceeds from study in younger times. You need to take time amid work, and scenes also arise where what you have learned is used immediately in work. What appears at such times is habits in ways of learning. A person who starts fast but does not continue, a person who takes time on preparation, a person for whom entering from practical work fits. If you know your habits, you can match the way of learning to yourself before the content to learn.
Here, from the qualities of the 12 signs, we organize as general discussion the tendencies in how to enter something new and how to acquire it.
The Fire Quality — Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
The fire quality is a type whose power to start is strong. In learning, too, that speed of initial movement appears.
Aries has a tendency to start immediately if it holds interest. A way of proceeding of trying first fits, and it acquires things by moving its hands before understanding the whole. On the other hand, it can skip the foundation part and become stuck later. As a way of learning, a form of placing time to try and time to check the foundation alternately fits well. The key point is to decide in advance the breaks for checking, while using the speed of starting.
Leo is a type whose power develops if there is an opportunity to show what it has learned to people, or use it in a work setting. If the goal is in a form where it is seen as a result, motivation to continue is kept. Conversely, learning where the scene of use cannot be seen tends to lose power in the middle. A form of deciding one scene of use when beginning to learn fits well.
Sagittarius is a type for whom entering from a large overall picture and way of thinking fits. When the whole can be seen, motivation also turns toward learning details. On the other hand, it has a tendency to find repetition of detailed procedures and practice requiring accuracy boring easily. A form of going back and forth between the overall picture and details, and dividing practice of details into short times, is easier to continue.
The Earth Quality — Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
The earth quality is a type that builds up and acquires. In the arrangements for learning, too, that steadiness appears.
Taurus has a tendency to acquire things while repeating the same procedures at its own pace. Rather than learning widely in a hurry, a form of advancing one thing reliably fits. Time is taken until starting, but once acquired, things can be kept for a long time. At the stage of beginning to learn, deciding just the first procedure and starting small is the key point for starting to move.
Virgo is a type that learns systematically and tries to understand accurately down to details. With that carefulness, it can acquire things with few mistakes. On the other hand, it can hold back from using things in practical work until understanding is perfect, and the time of use is delayed. If, even in the middle of learning, you take a form of trying in work from the parts that can be used, the speed of acquiring rises.
Capricorn is a type for whom deciding a goal and a deadline to learn fits. In a form with breaks, such as a qualification or stages, arrangements are easy to build. It exerts power the longer the learning, but also has a tendency to put off detour learning not directly connected to a goal. To widen the scope of work, it is also meaningful to have a little time to learn from interest, separately from the goal.
The Air Quality — Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
The air quality is a type that gathers information and understands. In ways of learning, too, how information is gathered appears.
Gemini has a tendency to be good at gathering information widely and understanding it by relating it. There is speed in entering, but interest moves easily, and it can move to the next theme before deepening one thing. A form of deciding in advance, for each theme to learn, a break at which it can be said to have been acquired, fits well. Because it is also a type whose understanding fixes by explaining to people, having an opportunity to put what has been learned into words is also effective.
Libra is a type that begins after comparing learning materials and ways of proceeding. If too much time is spent on comparison, the time to start is delayed. A form of narrowing materials to two or three to compare, and, once decided, not changing them for a fixed period, fits well. There is also a tendency to continue more easily if there is a place to learn together with people, or a person to share the state of progress with.
Aquarius is a type that tries to understand from systems and principles. When it understands why it becomes so, application becomes possible. On the other hand, a way of learning that memorizes procedures as they are feels boring easily, and practice of procedures can be insufficient. A way of proceeding of dividing understanding of principles from practice of procedures, and incorporating procedures in a form of repeating them within work, fits well.
The Water Quality — Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
The water quality is a type that acquires things within scenes and involvement with people. In ways of learning, too, that characteristic appears.
Cancer has a tendency to acquire things more easily if it learns connected to a close work scene. In a form used within its actual assignment work, learning and work become one. On the other hand, it can lean toward learning in familiar fields, and become careful about how to enter a new field. For a new field, a form of entering first from a part that has contact with close work fits well. It is also a type that has the power to continue for a long time.
Scorpio is a type that learns one theme by digging deeply into it. In a field it holds interest in, it does not stop at the surface, and tries to understand to the core. That depth is a strength, but if the scope to learn is narrowed too much, the breadth needed in work can be insufficient. A form of holding, divided, a theme to deepen and a theme to grasp broadly, fits well. When handing what has been learned to a person, the work of putting the core part into words also becomes a check of its own understanding.
Pisces is a type for whom learning while grasping the feel of an actual scene fits. It acquires things more easily in a way of learning where it looks at an example, or watches an experienced person's movements up close. With materials of only text, time can be taken to grasp the overall picture. At the start of learning, an order of entering the details after looking at the overall flow fits well. Flexibility to match the situation of the place becomes power in application scenes.
Using Ways of Learning in Handing Over Work
Knowing habits in ways of learning also connects to judgments on the side that teaches. In a veteran position, scenes increase not only of learning, but of handing over to the next person your own way of proceeding with work. At such times, if you can hand over matched to the other person's way of learning, handing over becomes easier to advance. For example, there is a division such as: for a person who learns by moving their hands, first give a place to try; for a person who learns by system, hand over the whole of the procedures first; and for a person who learns by scene, make an opportunity to attend actual work together.
A way of learning is not something that is decided in younger times and ends. If you change the form to match your own habits, new things can be acquired even as you age. Power to learn is decided not by the difficulty of content, but by whether you know your own way of proceeding. If there is a close part, please reflect it in the arrangements for the next learning.
