How to help people get better at anything - a conversation with Scott H. Young

Update: 2024-05-17

Description

Scott Young makes an extremely welcome return to the podcast having written a new book about learning that follows up on the smash hit 'Ultralearning'. 'Get Better at Anything' has a different flavour as it takes us on a more practical journey to explore the development of skill in multiple domains.

I was gripped by this conversation as we explored:

What Tetris players can teach us about getting better.
Why the mind is not a muscle!
Why we should value variability over repetition.
Why improvement is not a straight line.
Why practice must meet reality.

Amongst a whole heap of other things.

I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
