4x4 Learning: The 4-step method to get 4-times more out of every book, talk or video you read, hear or watch for the rest of your life

by Ian Gibbs

Have you ever been frustrated to discover you couldn’t remember something you read just the day before? Have you ever thought you understood a new idea but then found it difficult to put that idea into words? Have you ever given up on learning a new skill because when you tried to apply it, the result was an abysmal failure? If your answer to any of these is “yes”, you’re in the right place. Learning is one of the most useful skills we have in today’s forever-changing world. But even though you’ve probably spent the best part of your life learning in one form or another, no-one has ever told you about effective learning techniques. So that’s what this eBook is about. It’s a summary of my 4x4 Learnability workshop about how we learn and how to do it more quickly and effectively. It is aimed at the adult learner and as it says on the cover, after digesting its contents, you’ll be mentally equipped to get much more out of every book, talk or video you read, hear or watch for the rest of your life.

Really helpful. Made me rethink the way I study. Hope to practice it soon, but I think those techniques will work. Also, really nice approach of failure and how to deal with it.
