A Note from James:

"Get Better at Anything: 12 Maxims for Mastery." I first met Scott Young nearly ten years ago when he completed all the requirements for a four-year MIT degree in computer science in just 12 months. He's an expert at learning things quickly and recently authored the book "Get Better at Anything: 12 Maxims for Mastery."

I had the opportunity to sit down and talk with him, as I'm always interested in learning and mastering new skills. Scott Young excels in this area, and we discuss it thoroughly in this episode.

From Scott's pursuit of an MIT degree in a record-breaking year to effective strategies for mastering anything, this episode is a treasure trove for anyone looking to elevate their learning game. James explores the psychological underpinnings and practical applications of learning principles, drawing on examples from chess, writing, acting, and more to illustrate the multifaceted nature of learning and mastery. Scott Young provides insights from his book, offering listeners a blend of storytelling, scientific research, and personal anecdotes. Whether you're a lifelong learner, an educator, seeking to break through personal boundaries, or simply curious about the mechanics of mastering new skills, this episode is a compelling journey into understanding how we learn best.
