411: The Principles of Learning Anything - Part 1 - Technique
February's Theme: A New Perspective On Self-Education
For this entire month I will be joined by Steve Patterson, a home-educated and self-taught Rationalist philosopher, to explore five key principles of learning that are translatable to just about any pursuit.
Principle #1: Technique
The method in which you accomplish what you’re trying to do. It’s the concrete “how”.
- People have heroes, heroes become superhuman, godly – they look up to but never into people
- high-level performers simply have better technique than their competition. They are closer to “the right way of doing X” than other people.
- Almost everybody does everything incorrectly?
- Practice makes perfect?
- Steve's self-education in economics?
- Credentialing
