looking for a book on getting better at learning things, any recommendations? could be in the context of learning theoretical things (e.g. math) or so-called "soft skills", but mostly looking for a general approach

It’s not a book, but I thought this was really good!

Like, I think I learned this a bit myself? But yeah it's always good to have the reminder when being stuck trying to figure something out!

thanks for the recommendation, that was interesting indeed, and useful. I've been trying to think the way the mathematician described in the video for the past couple of years, but it's not always easy

I guess nowadays I kinda feel like something is "not for me" mainly because I often can't bring myself to focus on that thing, even if I find it fun, but that's a whole other problem
