8 Key Lessons from the Ultralearning Experiment

Financial Independence Podcast

Last year, I conducted an experiment in Ultralearning that I hoped would help me achieve a lifelong dream of mine of writing and releasing an album.

I’m happy to say it was far more successful than I ever imagined it would be!

As I mentioned in the initial Ultralearning podcast episode, the hope for the 3-month experiment was that it would accelerate my progress towards my goal and make the process more enjoyable.

Well, it did all that and more…

I ended up finishing a song during that 3-month experiment and I can’t believe it but I just released that single today!

Not only did I write a song during the experiment, I continued writing music since then and I now have enough material for an album!

Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought this experiment would help me make so much progress but it has! In today’s podcast episode, I go through everything I learned and explain why the Ultralearning Experiment helped me push past the self-doubt and self-destructive habits that have plagued me in the past.

I also describe the new routines the experiment helped me develop and why those new habits have allowed me accomplish more than I ever have before!

Highlights

• How to get your brain ready (and why it’s essential for making progress)
• The best way to make developing new habits easier
• What you should focus on and why
• How to be original and creative
• Why you should make your project “real” (even if it makes you feel silly)
• When it’s worth spending more money instead of less
• Why you should expect to encounter the “gap” and how to get over it
