HUMAN INSIGHTS FOR SUCCESS: HOW WE LEARN!

The following are insights all of us need to be aware of. We learn the following way:

1. 83% through sight.

2. 11% through hearing.

3. 3 ½ % through smell.

4. 1 ½ % through touch.

5. 1% through taste.

Does the above surprise you? As a parent, this is sobering. It’s not what we necessary say that is important; it is what our children see us doing. If you smoke and tell your children “don’t smoke” guess what?

We learn predominantly by seeing. If you are a businessperson this means that your employees will learn more by observation; especially observing you!

We normally think that hearing is the most important. That is why some of us talk more than we should. A visual presentation therefore, will be much more productive.

Keep this in mind the next time you want to learn something or you are teaching something.
