The learning pyramid - the further down you go, the more you learn. At the bottom is teach others, and you don’t have to be a teacher. Just cast, post, or blog whatever you are learning - sharing with others is a form of teaching and helps you master the material better

agree 80-90%, not sure doing vs teach to others? feel doing is the best teacher, experience has more nuances no words to explain - no matter how many words trying to describe. steve jobs has a sarcastic comments about consultant: those that teach can't do ... or something like that? damn, i choose violence again :)

When you teach others and get asked a question, you are forced to reconcile whether you intuitively understand the material or you’re just repeating what you’ve been taught I think that’s why it’s deeper than doing - you could be repeating a pattern that works while not fully understanding why it works

Isn’t experience help to answer/reconcile it in a different way? Example: from sports they are all doers, then after successful, they become coaches. Of course there are areas, where you could just go become coaches. Or give a specific ex where that chart is true?

ex: learn how to meditate? I could explain about what meditation is and not, like until i die, or someone could ask me question, and i will try to answer it in 1001 ways. But without fully experiencing what meditation is bymyself, I could not explain that fully, because it will just be a concept on my mind.

Makes sense For coding at least, you can code for a long time and understand that certain snippets work but not understand why When you teach it you end up learning the material deeper because you have to explain why it works
