Hello friends, welcome back to Modern Wisdom.

My guest today is Scott H. Jung and we are talking about his new book Ultra Learning.

This is a man who completed the MIT Computer Science degree which should take four years in

one year.

This means completing a module which should take around about a term in just over a week.

Every week for an entire year and then passing the exams at the end of it.

The forward for this book is by James Clear, author of Atomic Habits and previous Modern

Wisdom guest.

And the top subtitle above it is by Cal Newport.

So Scott is swimming in some very big, dicked waters at the moment.

And I absolutely love the book.

I love the discussion within.

It's really interesting to hear some of these fantastic examples from people like Benny

Lewis who's the Irish language polyglot, some guys who beat jeopardy, some people who

managed to become the best public speakers in a huge organisation in the space of a couple

of months.

And the strategies and tactics we go through today should help you improve your skill acquisition

and hopefully perhaps undertake an ultra learning project of your own.

I'd love to hear if there's a project that you've got going on at the moment which

you're going to try and apply some of these skills to.

If there is, get at me at ChrisWillX on all social media.

But for now, please welcome Scott Young.
