What is Conceptual clarity?

Other

February. 10. 2021

Many of us lack "conceptual clarity" because instead of learning well, we are too focused on learning things fast.

What is a concept?

A concept is a formed idea which is framed in such a way that it can be explained to "myself" and to others

My natural assumption is that my personal explanation of the idea is clear and since it is instinctively clear to me I may assume that it is already formed.

But what if someone comes along and ask, "Why?" I might be unable to answer that appropriately because I have not formed that idea to the point where I can explain the "Why" to myself.

Once I can explain the concept to myself, I have conceptual clarity and I am in a position to explain it to others in a way that makes sense.
