Ultralearning Plans

Ultralearning - Take control of your learning​

I recently read the book Ultralearning by Scott H Young and started applying the techniques I learned to my own learning. I created a template that I started applying to all my new learning projects.

What is Ultralearning?​

Ultralearning is a strategy for aggressive, self-directed learning.

It's a strategy — meaning a choice about how to pursue learning to get results.

It's aggressive — meaning aimed at doing what works, even if it's a little harder or intense.

It's self-directed — meaning you're the one in control. --Scott H Young
