Ultralearning

Super good information. The methods on self-learning were encouraging and inspiring to me. I have a lot of self-directed projects that I'd like to do so this book was like candy. I'd recommend it to anyone who is really excited about learning new stuff rather than just getting an education to get the piece of paper at the end.

4.5 stars. A pretty well researched and sensible book on how to create and execute learning projects. I had my quibbles (I don't think the Polgar sisters' story proves that just anyone can be a grand master with training, and there's no discussion of the failed replications of Growth Mindset) but those were minor.

Very useful resource

Really good book for anyone who wants to have an edge in their professional career, learn anything more quickly and effectively or is just into learning science. Book focuses on cognitive skills however the advice can also in many ways be applied to motor skills. I started planning my first ultralearning project while reading. Highly recommended!
