I had the obvious realization that spending a few hours on how to learn better would pay for itself in a week or two and then would pay enormous dividends over the course of my whole life. So...how do I learn to learn?

Unfortunate learning can be a bit domain specific I.e. learning a language is very different than learning carpentry. But generally: -healthy body -you can’t learn if you don’t sleep well -learn first wide and shallow before (trunk tree) you go deep (branches)

1/2 are good and obvious misses! Can you explain why 3 is true?

Personal experience which I was happy to see Elon Musk validating (he’s an ultra learner!). Just seems like it’s hard to retain the deep learning if you don’t have a good picture of where it sits in the overall context.

*IF* this is true it could be a low hanging fruit since, traditionally, schools dig deep into subjects, in a very parallel manner, without first establishing the basics of how it all connects.

I have "making a full list of all first principles and basica phenomena of life" on my to do list for this reason. Understand concepts like "critical mass" or "herd mentality" to make sense of life and make better predictions. It's basically Munger's latticework theory.
