On today’s episode of the Financial Independence Podcast, I’m excited to introduce Scott Young!

I first heard about Scott when he decided to complete MIT's entire computer science curriculum in a year.

Scott has taken on a lot of these types of impressive learning projects and he just wrote a great book about it – Ultralearning.

As you know, I’m attempting to tackle a very intimidating project myself so what better way to kick off that effort than with my own 3-month ultralearning project!

In today’s interview, we dive into the details of ultralearning and we design a new ultralearning project from scratch.

Ultralearning projects seem perfect for anyone who is FI or hopes to achieve financial independence one day so hope you get as much out of this discussion as I did!

Highlights

Why ultralearning can help you get to FI quicker (while making the journey more enjoyable)
How Scott was able to complete MIT’s computer science curriculum in one year
Why the first part of learning something new is the hardest and how to use ultralearning to get past that phase sooner
How to learn new languages as quickly and efficiently as possible
Details about my own ultralearning project and how Scott suggests I design it
The imporantance of breaking big goals into concrete stages
Why limiting scope is so important when diving into something new
What is meta-feedback and why it’s important
The power of direct practice and how to use drills to fix specific issues
What to do when you hit a block or a plateau in your learning
