The white matter in your brain helps improve performance on a number of tasks. The more you learn and practice the more dense the white matter in your brains becomes, which helps you learn even better in the future.
Learning a new skill helps you learn things faster over time. By stimulating neurons in the brain, more neural pathways are formed and electrical impulses travel faster across them as you attempt to process new information. The more pathways that are formed, the faster impulses can travel.
Part of learning a new skill is connecting that skill to information and skills you already know. Prior knowledge helps you relate to new information and build on your existing knowledge, which makes it easier to learn even more new skills.
