Whether you amp rsquo re training to play the piano, speak a foreign language, shoot a target with a bow and arrow, or master the techniques of fine carpentry, the conditions of your training will affect how successfully you learn and perform.
  • How can you process needed new information in order to remember it better and use it in the future?
  • How long should you work, study, or practice before taking a break?
