Personally, I now aim for one month of overseas relocation or high-intensity learning (tango, fighting, whatever) for every two months of work projects.
All the students have shown more advance in two months of summer study than they have in a year of ordinary instruction, largely due to their free and wholesome life in the open air.
I have to study, study, and study because I have to learn everything. Everyone expects me to be an expert on everything.
I did private study for about a month, five days a week, six hours a day. I came to understand the character in ways that I never would've previous to that. I was so innocent in respect to ways of creating characters.
I enjoy what was called 'swotting' in my day.
Westminster is no joke. I took some tough classes there. It prepared me for a tough career.
There was no other concern; there was no other focus [in the Governor's School]. It was simply there to learn and grow and perform, and that was pretty amazing and informative. I'd say that was a big pivotal moment for me.
A mind of moderate capacity which closely pursues one study must infallibly arrive at great proficiency in that study.
Even within traditional universities there has always been debate about whether it wouldn't be better to focus on only one course at a time.
