  • Principle #4: No one weighs the importance of facts for you

Weigh them yourself. We are rarely told what's most important to know. When you are tested in life, the people who do best are the ones who understand what is most important. This is a skill that's not taught anywhere. Learn to weigh the facts yourself.

  • Principle #5: Read source literature and books

There are newer books, like this one, that are worthy of your time. However, you can often get a better quality learning experience when you go back to older book's like, The Odyssey, The Wealth of Nations, On the Origin of Species, etc.
