It would be so awesome if we could simply springboard off the "wow, this is amazing..." factor of highly novel ideas we've never heard of before and leverage our awe to soak in new things at superspeed. Instead, we get overwhelmed and demotivated and think "I could never learn that" - which only serves to send is spiralling in the opposite direction! Completely serious question/request: I'd be hugely interested in psychology hacks/ideas that short-circuit the brain (safely) to remedy this "thinking anti-pattern". I think self-worth and confidence might be buried in the answer - I don't know if this is my own bias (depression?), I can't help but think that there's the tiniest edge of "I'm not worth learning this", which snowballs in a big way. Lack of confidence would be an obvious blocker though.
