Get Better at Anything with Scott H. Young

Описание: Today, we have Scott Young on the podcast. Scott is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Ultralearning, a podcast host, computer programmer, and an avid reader. Since 2006, he has published weekly essays to help people learn and think better. His work has been featured in the New York Times, Pocket, and Business Insider, on the BBC, and at TEDx among other outlets.

Scott joined us today to discuss his new book – Get Better at Anything: 12 Maxims for Mastery.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into learning and skill development with Scott. From the debate around unlearning in psychology to the real-life examples of refining motor skills, we explore the complexity of acquiring new abilities. Scott’s expertise helps enrich our understanding of deliberate practice, problem-solving, and the power of imitation in creativity.

I really enjoyed this conversation with Scott, our second one, and I hope you do too.
