Bruce Lee's 3 Laws of Learning
There’s this quote by Bruce Lee I have decided to name as his 3 Laws of Learning
Absorb what is useful, discard what is useless and add what is specifically your own
— Wisdom for the Way
The laws work best when all three work together. But, making it clear they are also three separate actions may be helpful especially when trying out new things as part of growth.
To make it more formal, let me list them out as:
First Law: Absorb what is useful
Second Law: Discard what is useless
Third Law: Add what’s uniquely yours
