|

|
|
</p><blockquote><p>Empty the cup so that it may filled.
|
||
|
|
Become devoid to gain totality.
|
||
|
|
</p></blockquote><p>Forgetting is often looked at a negative view but it can be used in a good way.

Accumulation of knowledge is not often a good thing.

There are various <a href="/wiki/2021-05-21-19-26-06">Pitfalls and illusions of competence</a> and situations where one can make a better judgement since <a href="/wiki/2021-07-15-07-25-39">Being misinformed is better than being ignorant</a> (sometimes).
|
||
|
|
</p><p>A good reason to learn about forgetting is <a href="/wiki/learning.pitfalls.tunnel-vision">Tunnel vision</a>.

Its tendency to block out new ideas in the way of solving a problem is certainly not a great situation to be in.
|
||
|
|
The solution can be simple: don't think about your initial solution.
|
||
|
|
In other words, forget it.
|
||
|
|
</p><p>It can thought of as forcing yourself to see things in a (hopefully) new perspective.
|
||
|
|
Basically, the idea of <a href="/wiki/learning.techniques.interleaving">Switching between different topics makes new perspective</a>.
|
||
|
|
</p><p>As much as this idea sounds unique, it completely isn't.
|
||
|
|
This idea is already made its way through all of our lives.
