Power of Unlearning | Pranati Poornasri | TEDxYouth SNIS

Core Concept - Unlearning is not about erasing knowledge, but questioning, rethinking, and sometimes replacing what was thought to be true [5] - Unlearning creates space to grow, challenge old beliefs, and imagine new possibilities [17] - Letting go of old beliefs helps in learning new things and can lead to amazing outcomes [17] Practical Application - Adapting to new grading systems requires unlearning old approaches to improve performance [6][9] - Unlearning limiting beliefs opens up new possibilities and helps face challenges with confidence [14] - Removing old habits or beliefs that no longer serve a purpose makes space for new ones [13] Illustrative Examples - Steve Jobs unlearned old perspectives after being ousted from Apple, leading to the creation of Next and Pixar, and ultimately improving Apple [15][16][17] - The concept of drawing a tree differently challenges deeply ingrained perceptions and demonstrates the power of unlearning [10][11]
