Expand Your Aperture: Learning How to Learn and Unlearn | Linda Ngô | TEDxFTU Hanoi

Core Concept: Personal Growth & Adaptability - Expanding one's aperture, through learning, unlearning, and relearning, breaks down barriers and opens up new possibilities [2] - Break points, moments of feeling stuck, are invitations to grow if one is willing to learn, unlearn, and relearn [4][7] - Unlearning involves acknowledging that some beliefs or habits are no longer serving, creating space for new ideas [11][25] - Relearning involves finding fresh perspectives within what one already knows, combating burnout [18][19] Practical Application: Content Creation & Collaboration - Authenticity, not perfection, connects with people [12] - Negative feedback should be viewed as a sign of sparking a reaction, rather than a cause for discouragement [15] - Collaboration and trusting the process can lead to unexpected ideas and viral content [16][17] Methodology for Unlearning - Identify the limiting habit or belief, acknowledge its impact, and examine its origin [21][22] - Challenge the belief with new evidence, replace it with a positive belief, and test the new belief in small steps [23][24] - Practice letting go in real situations, acting in ways that align with the new belief [24][25]
