The Research Phase
- Get the big picture. Scan articles etc. to get an idea of what the field is about.
- Determine scope. Limit the size of what you want to learn. “Physics” or “philosophy” is too wide and will take decades. “Classical mechanics”, while still wide, might be a bit easier.
- Define success. Make a clear goal for your learning.
- Find resources
- Create a learning plan from what you have learned in you previous steps.
- Filter resources. Narrow down your resource list (Step 4) to the most important essentials.

Two big lessons in learning
The first lesson is that learning is a loop.
It’s not a pretty loop, and it looks something like this: play → study → teach → play → study → play → study → teach … and so on.
The other big lesson? Learning is about play.

The Learning Phase
- Learn enough to get started.
- Playing around with the information will give context and tacit knowledge to go back and do more verbal, analytic learning.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
