#4 - What's Wrong With What You Learn | Scott Young
SCOTT YOUNG - BEST SELLING AUTHOR AND CREATOR OF THE MIT CHALLENGE. Scott joins us today to talk about his book ULTRALEARNING. He's spent over a decade studying and efficiently acquiring skills of all kinds, including the Famous MIT CHALLENGE where in just 12 months he learned the entire 4-year MIT curriculum for computer science, WITHOUT TAKING ANY CLASSES. He followed all of that up by learning 4 languages in his next challenge A YEAR WITHOUT ENGLISH. Scott continued to refine and adjust his methodology by speaking to other ultralearners (Polyglots, Public Speakers, Intellectuals, ) in an effort to hone his skills and form a method that he could present to the public. Ultralearning is the culmination of years of work and you can hear all about it today on the podcast and check out his popular blog at https://www.scotthyoung.com/
