My notes 1.Take advantage of spacing effect • Aim to cover each piece info in 5 times 2.Studying • Recall beats review 3.Study Materials •Mock> homework & practice problems > recall and self generating questions Also avoid problem from other classes •Processing information strongly 4.Deeply understand core concepts •think deep and no shallow understand 5. Exposure to study often creates less anxiety

Here are the key takeaways from the transcript: 1. **Career Capital**: Success in your career largely depends on developing rare and valuable skills. However, working hard alone doesn't guarantee the acquisition of such skills. It's crucial to focus on skills that directly enhance career prospects. 2. **Deliberate Practice**: While hard work is necessary, the effectiveness of your efforts hinges on engaging in focused, deliberate practice, ideally under the guidance of a coach. 3. **Skill Relevance**: Many people need to better allocate their effort towards impactful skills rather than merely enjoyable ones. Before embarking on skill development, it's essential to research and understand which skills will truly advance your career. 4. **Conducting Research**: Effective research involves more than reading books; it requires talking to people who have recently advanced in your desired career path to gain current and relevant insights. 5. **Learning from Others**: Instead of just asking for advice, approach conversations with successful individuals like a journalist seeking to uncover the detailed story of their career progression. These insights emphasize the importance of strategic skill development and informed networking to build a successful career.

"one of the things it can't do is plan the lives of thousands of people." This presupposes that the trouble of the economy of the USSR was a lack of information about needs, and I would say that's not exactly true. They tried to plan the satisfaction of needs by using levers borrowed from capitalism, as if ascribing a price to something and trying to make profit was the same thing as knowing how much corn, steel, or antibiotics are needed and then producing it. Capitalist firms plan their production, material requirements, and output of commodities down to the smallest detail. Not just a factory but the entire chain of production with all its suppliers and customers functions like clockwork, ‘just in time’ - simply for profit, for which all work is done in this country. But for any purpose other than competition for the money of society, planning is somehow absolutely futile! The argument against theoretical knowledge is also a contradiction in terms because it itself is a theoretical claim even if it claims to be based on empirical "traditional wisdom."

00:00 Mental models are general ideas used to explain phenomena. 01:42 Learning involves acquiring patterns and methods to solve problems efficiently. 03:22 Integration of new information is easier with a foundation of knowledge. 05:10 Skills may be specific, but breadth creates generality. 07:00 Efficient learning requires optimizing mental bandwidth 08:38 Reasoning through mental models can explain logical deficiencies 10:19 Learning through examples is faster and more effective than abstract descriptions, but we must be cautious when making broad inferences based on a few examples. 12:01 Forgetting is unavoidable, but relearning is usually faster than initial learning.

Yep this is true even from a religious point of view It was narrated from Sakhr Al-Ghamidi that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "O Allah, bless my nation in their early mornings (i.e., what they do early in the morning)." (Hasan)He said: "When he sent out a raiding party or an army, he would send them at the beginning of the day." He said: (1) "Sakhr was a man engaged in trade, and he used to send his goods out at the beginning of the day, and his wealth grew and increased." Ibn Majah 2236

Success being the best teacher is actually such a good idea. There is so much pop-philosophy rhetoric about "failure is better than succeeding because then you learn more." Learning from failure only crosses off one option from the list of many. Learning what works can then be built upon and improved.
@tbtitans21
@tbtitans21 Ай бұрын
I disagree with this. Failure provides a strong and robust foundation on which to base part 3 (knowledge grows exponentially) on. The key is to abstract away the fundamental misunderstanding you had that led you down that wrong path to begin with. That failure might also succeed in obtaining some other goal you might not have originally thought of ( a precursor to part 4 "How innovation works" ). It may not be a goal you want or need now, but failure ALWAYS provides something, if you're paying attention and appreciating the process.

When i decide to do my projects i cannot finish in time and i feel like there is no end point for me. But when i decide to do someone else project, i dont have to worry about anything and i finish it before the deadline. I think stress plays a vital role in this. I have also been doing meditation but i cannot fully commit to it. How do i stop myself from not commiting to do all the productive things in life.

God may bless you Scott you are a huge inspiration for me, I dropped university because I am doing robotics/ai/3d/software/hardware/multimedial werid stuff and there is no career teaching this so I am learning multiple careers on my own, and I am planning that one of those would be the MIT Challenge and follow your steps. So thank you so much for making the road easier really I appreciate that so much. And as a personal answer for your question because I lived it is in my case that I didn't have a good reason to make put all that effort and maybe as a non native english speaker it increments the difficulty more, but when I found my passion of this strange combination I was so drive that I don't care learning the most stressful and dificult thing, but it is because emotionally I have a good reason to keep going

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 4 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 20,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967736246190 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~«««~-♡~♡~♡~`•√~~•~•~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡♡♡~~~~: ~:~¡~¡~¡~;I.i.i.i.i.i. i.I.|-◖≤o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\?'!'!';";

Astonnishing video as always i learned a lot for my language learning, my goal is to learn japanese. The strat that im using is thag i downloaded a couple of anki decks with the n3 n4 and n5 most used words (around 5000 most common words). I do various sessions (by the way i already knew katakana and hiragana, the sillabires that allows to writte anything but do not indicate the pronunciation since they do not signal to which objects we are refering as pitch accent is not deducible from it) of "drills" through the day when i have free time, doing certain activites, in the first 3 days i was raw memorizing, for that i utilized mnemotechniques that involved the pronunciagion or writing of the word, for example "kaku" means writte, therefore i imagine a makaku (that is a name of a chimp, i speak spanish as well so deoending on if the japanese word is similar to a spanish or english word i would do the assosiation in anh of the languages) writting. And as i dont like to waste time, instead of creating new cards i was simply memorizing and using only the deck of the n5 with the most used 1000 words. In a week i would say that i know around 500-1000 words. Therefore each time i read (in furigana, utilizing text that sows the reading on hiragana of eaxh kanji) i recognize a couple of works, however i noticed that there is usually a big change between the word because of grammatical issues. Now im now going to immerse doing "drills" of this kind; take a text on furigana, a page, go paragraph by paragraph and ask an ia to divide the paragraphs by words, then i memorize all words, and then i read the whole page, then i read it again but sentence by sentence searching the meaning of the words that i forget (as the mnemoteque is effective but not perfect i just read, search the meaning, emphasise a little bit on the mnemotechnique but i do not writte nothing and just keep reading until the orations make sense). Another drill is with videos, i simply use an extension called bilingual subtitles and another that if im not wrong is iago (furigana reading for kanjis) and download the subtitles, then i reproduce sections of the video multiple times trying to make sense of it. Im 10 days in and i know some basic stuff, however, another drill would be to make various phrases that would be in a conversation in which i may find my self and use mnemotechniques again to remember the words and try to make sense out of the video. My idea of lear ing is that as these 1000 words are common, with doing the mnemotecnique once is more than enough, because as they are so common they would be present in any piece of information of the language and therefore i would be doing actuve recalling. By the moment i do not do passive immersion by the fact that i do not understand absolutely nothing unless it was a daily conversation (hello, how are you, what a good thing, etcetera). In other times i just watch common phrases that you would us in a daily basis. As i speak spanish as my native language i have absoluteky no problem with hearing, even hearing the pitch tone (as in spanish we use a lot uf accent marks) and i train my hear day by day, however, if you ae interesed on it you can acquire pitch by simply paying attention in which parts the speakers make emphasis, you can start by searching auduios in dictionarys and try to figure out each promuntiation. For kanji i do not know nothing, besides the pronuntiation of a couple of characters and the meaning of hundreds, however my plan is to copy hanzihero (a guy that has a page in wich he teaches hanzi, the chinese writting system) through obsidian, spaced repetiton and a lot of reading (which is as well spaced repetition, since you are using the kanjis that you may have studied and then repeat if you rememeber them correctly and if not try to remembering them again).I would use the book "remembering the kanji" by Janes heisig to remember the meanings. For instance the kanji of black is 黒 and is pronuncied "kuro" the mnemotechnique that Heisig proposes is a pen and the four point are ink (and the oen is the kanji of a rice camp with a cross on the cmground), however, he doesnt give a mnemotechnique for the pronunciations so i associate kuro with some drawing and i do a story just as in the case of memorizing vocabulary (if someone is interesed on this can try the page of hanzihero to learn how to learn any hanzi). The problem with kanji is that they have multiple pronuntiations and therefore, theyr pronuntation will deoend on context and with which kanjis are combined or if they are alone, however this is not hard to know since the knowing of the meaning allows for a try of prediction of the kanjis. Obviously the mnemotechniques should be as vivid and bizarre as possible, that mnemotechnique is usually used to memorize chains of words (for ezample, dog-oranges, you would instantly memorize it if you image your dog or anyone dog juggking the oranges). And obviously is necessary to learn kanji and vocab in context and in various cases. In the case of kanji an emohazis on watching common combations with ither kanjis is as well important.
