[0:00]When we're learning, we should never focus on things piece by piece, and I'll explain why. The brain is an incredibly energy consuming organ.

Even at rest, it uses 20% of your daily your daily caloric expenditure, roughly. And so for your brain, it will never ever hold on to information that it does not think is important enough to hold on to, because it burns so much energy that it's a matter of life or life or death. There is almost nothing your brain is better at than forgetting.
