Step 15: Talk About What You Have Learned

The mastery of a subject depends on how much you share the information you
know and insights you create. Linguistic anthropologists believe that interaction,
whether it is interpersonal (e.g. a conversation with another person) or
intrapersonal (e.g. writing an essay on a journal), develops the brain and all of its
contents by reinforcing the storage of information. Talking about what you know
serves as some kind of recording to convert short-term memories into long-term
memories that you can access later on.

Furthermore, conversations stimulate your brain by activating spontaneous
recalling and memorization. How many information do you think you recall
whenever you talk with someone for an hour, especially if you share experiences
with one another? At the same time, your brain recalls what is being fed to you,
especially if there is innate emotional relevance to them.
