Eric Siu and a co-host discuss their learning approach: podcasts as their primary tool, re-reading the same books instead of chasing new ones, and ditching books that don't hook them by page 30. They focus on reinforcing mental models rather than consuming everything.
What's in your learning stack? How do you get better? I learn the best from podcasts, to be honest, listening to others and getting inspired by others. And then also reading, like if they have books, but usually I only read the same books over and over rather than reading a bunch of books. And then if I don't like a book within the first like 30 pages, I don't waste my time and try to finish it.
So you're trying to reinforce the same kind of mental models, ideas instead of trying to pull everything in? Yeah, exactly.
