Einstein's rule of don't remember anything you can look up to free your mind to reach maximum potential can now be extended to a degree he never imagined at a very low cost using a combination of a smart phone, smart watch and a laptop. It is far better to focus on productive endeavors of all types business, pleasure and relationships through creating a personal/professional ecosystem that not only provides information, but with addition of medical and physical monitoring devices like sport scales, oximeters, blood pressure monitors, and sport watches can help us keep in peak health. Letting tech with the combination of needed platforms can increase the quality of life, work and health. The proper use of this ecosystem can help increase one's performance by off loading tasks that technology has freed up for mental tasks and keep our physical state at its peak. Properly put together a tech ecosystem saves time, work, frustration, money and increases the fulfillment of life in general. Some think tech is mature, but we are still in the early stages of putting much of the tech we have had for years to its full potential. Any thoughts, comments and additions solicited and welcome. Semis have just really started to reach their maximum impact an that will only increase as we learn to unlock their full potential.
Memorization is not the same as understanding. If you have ever read Einstein's work, it is clear he knew physics deeply, and math fairly well, which allowed him to conceptualize in ways you cannot offload. To do that he may not have needed to memorize the numbers, but he surely immersed himself in understanding most of his waking hours. Accounts of his habits back that up.
Our silicon assistants sure are useful, and the internet is a most amazing resource for learning as well as looking things up, but this just makes the hours we put in more effective. It does not absolve us of the time and patient effort put into learning.

It's all about leveraging time and resources and we have just scratched the surface of what tech can leverage. Leverage is the greatest tool of all and tech has become the ultimate fulcrum. It's about time and tech is becoming greater at leveraging and being able to compound its use. Much of this is from more solutions and ways of reaching them are being created at an ever accelerating rate. This is a relatively new paradigm and learning to take advantage of it will be a new skill set and business opportunity for those that can build more fulcrums to apply to time, resources and discovery, all of which can be automated to a degree once considered unimaginable. There are numerous examples out there with more being created all the time.
