Synopsis

Learn Like Elon, Work Like Hell is a short introduction to some of the most cutting-edge learning strategies out there. These strategies, despite being proven effective by numerous studies, haven't been accepted as part of the mainstream. Despite providing much deeper, long-lasting knowledge retention, they aren't as intuitive, or warm and fuzzy, as the common techniques people are taught ("Concentrate on one subject until you nail it", "Schedule your study sessions close together", etc.) Luke Kenly has gone over the science of study, and has put together this introduction to concepts such as Retrieval Practice, Spacing, Interleaving, and more, and translates them into language everyone can understand, along with actionable instructions that you can use immediately to supercharge your learning sessions. ------------------------------------- "Elon Musk starts billion-dollar companies the way some people floss their teeth: Every few years, with some struggle, but eventual success. We all know his accomplishments, wealth, and general rockstar status, but what’s pretty fascinating, to me anyway, is how he got there. Unlike most people as famous as him, he’s not an actor, he isn’t a musician, and he wasn’t born rich or physically gifted. Elon Musk got where he is by constantly being the smartest guy in the room — quite possibly in every room he’s ever been in. He combined his intelligence with an incredible work ethic, and some extremely focused, ambitious goals, and he transformed the world around him. This book is not specifically about Elon Musk. It’s about learning techniques, but these are techniques that Elon has used in his ascent. You can use these techniques to learn anything, and everything, that you want, and learn it durably, for your entire life. By using these techniques, you’ll learn things faster, and you’ll retain the knowledge longer. The techniques I’ll be explaining may not be what you were taught in school, but they’ve been used by the smartest, most effective learners. What these strategies have in common is that they all have very solid science behind them, but they haven’t become widely known or adopted, for reasons I’ll talk about later in the book. I went out of my way to include “Work like hell” in the title of this book, but don’t let it scare you too much. If you follow the strategies in this book, you will work hard, but you’ll get great long-term, durable knowledge, and you’ll enjoy it. Studying any subject can be a nightmare when you don’t feel like you’re getting anywhere, but when you do it effectively, it’s addictive."
