Great post and great advice for anyone studying anything difficult.
We are trained to get everything right and be embarrassed if we don't know something. This makes it hard to practice pushing the boundaries of our own knowledge. It comes to the point where people can't even recognize when they don't know a thing!
I don't know what the solution is but I think that schools should become better at pushing people to the edge of their competency. To do so we must become more tolerant of ignorance so the teacher and the student can learn strategies to find the shape of it strategies on how to push themselves into that unknown. Right now we generally wait until grad school to really do such things and it is holding us back as a society.
