How to explain the most complex ideas in simple terms?
Four steps of the Feynman technique are
- Write down everything new you learn about a subject in a notebook.
- Pretend to teach the topic in a classroom. Try to explain in a simple way.
- Go back to the books when you get stuck.
- Simplify and use analogies that everybody knows and understands.
