use material from the meta-analysis, make it stick, flow, ultralearning, synaptic pruning, etc
You need to use “deliberate practice.”
Focus on difficult activities, carefully chosen to stretch your abilities where they need stretching, and that provide immediate feedback.
Collect textbooks. You can pick problems and are often taught to your ability, one level at a time.
Most individuals who start as active professionals change their behaviour and increase their performance for a limited time until they reach an acceptable level. Beyond this point, however, further improvements appear to be unpredictable and the number of years of work is a poor predictor of attained performance.
Basically, if you just show up and work hard, you’ll soon hit a performance plateau beyond which you fail to get any better.
Figure out how to integrate deliberate practice into your life.
