In a study using college math problems, students who learned in blocks—all examples of a particular type of problem at once—performed a lot worse come test time than students who studied the exact same problems but all mixed up. The blocked-practice students learned procedures for each type of problem through repetition. The mixed-practice students learned how to differentiate types of problems.

Finalement, dans nos tentatives de nous affranchir du déterminisme de notre striatum, l’enjeu de la conscience se révélera central. La plupart de nos actes sont entrepris avec un très faible niveau de conscience. Lorsque nous vaquons à des tâches ménagères, prenons le chemin du travail, faisons du vélo ou du footing, quand nous nous brossons les dents ou sommes à table, nous agissons le plus souvent de manière machinale. Même lorsque nous nous livrons à des activités intellectuelles, il serait faux d’affirmer que nous le faisons en toute conscience.

How do you get your co-workers and direct reports to grow professionally? How do you challenge and stretch yourself? Are you learning something every day? What is your vision for where you want to go? How do you get the company as a whole to grow? Are you doing everything you can to promote company growth, and at the same time are you helping others understand the growth? Do you understand the company vision?
