There are sometimes that we see some people learning things very quickly and on the other hand some people are very slow or unable to learn things. I believe it could depend on intelligence, maturity and willingness.
Also, I believe learning depends on the person if they are dedicated or interested enough then they will succeed any way. For me, there's not only one thing but multiple things which I have learned really quickly because I found it easier to learn. Like if I'm interested into something and I want to achieve it then I can do it anytime or any way but it will take some time, that's all. I usually would learn anything quickly. My friends also often tell me that I am a fast learner or sometimes they call me smart or a nerd, hehe.
For an example, I started playing Splinterlands recently, and I had no basic knowledge about it. Because I have never played card games before but I have started to get really good at it. At first, every new game, feels hard but once I start to acknowledge it or try to understand it then there are many doors open for me. Learning the cards name, abilities, ruleset and ways to build a team. Was not easy at all, it's complicated so I can't make anyone understand this game. Because every match is different and you have to use different monsters each time for each match.
I think I have the ability to learn through observing and sometimes because of my stubbornness. Or sometimes when someone challenges me, I just do it to prove them wrong. I don't like spending too much time being confused about anything. I observe and learn from my mistakes. Sometimes I feel that something may be difficult for other people to understand but I can understand it quite quickly.
But there's a place where I have struggled more than others which is speaking. It's very easier for many people but it's hard for me. I used to get confused and nervous when I spoke. I can speak in English fluently but when I try to speak it, that kinda feels weird and uncomfortable because I wonder what the other people will think. I know what I want to say but saying it without stuttering is a different challenge. But guess what? Even this problem of mine got solved in a few weeks. I join talking sessions on the Monday Hangout on Hive Learners and that has helped me a lot. At first, I used to stutter a lot while speaking in front of everyone but the they encouraged me a lot, so I kept participating and practicing with them. And after every session, I started to become more fluent.
Being a fast learner is my skill but I will never be perfect at everything immediately. It will take time and eventually within time and with proper practice, I can learn anything, only if I wish to. For me, the learning curve may sometimes be steep but I know I can climb it if I don't give up.
