Build the foundation first: An antidote to our brain’s tendency to overcomplicate simple things

Over the past years, I have worked hard on a new course - Foundations. In this video I'm going over the contents and the different foundations that you can build together with me.

WHO AM I:
I'm a Wall Street Journal bestselling author of "Ultralearning: Master Hard Skills, Outsmart the Competition, and Accelerate Your Career," podcast host, computer programmer, and an avid reader. Since 2006, I've published weekly essays on this website to help people like you learn and think better. My work has been featured in The New York Times, BBC, TEDx, Pocket, Business Insider, and more. I don't promise I have all the answers; just a place to start.

Well then, looks like someone upped the production quality.

This is some quite nice work, and it kinda baffles me how you don't have more people following you.

Anyhow, thank you scott for your lessons and your dedication to this field. Because of you i finally have the ways of learning and a rekindled love for it again, and now i have my own learning project coming up, so i really want to thank you. Best of times scott. You got this.

I like your list. I look at your list as 12 structured ways I could "Sharpen my Saw" as Mr Covey called it.

Thank you. Great video.

Appreciate your content very much! I would love if you could organize more of your videos into playlists. Especially your newer content.

Pretty interesting take on self development, hope to see more details soon

Nicely phrased discussion about basic life habits. I suggest there is a universal aspect to world religions: behave according to the golden rule and building community. You might consider the book Tribal Leadership's core practice of building relationship triads in Foundation 12, Service.

Great video as always Scott! I already joined the mail list, but I haven't received a confirmation mail, take care!

I'm 30 and I feel like a waste of space. I have a degree and two masters, mind you. But I never did what I really wanted: to write fiction. Damn. I think about starting but I never start.

Hey scott, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?

Scott you've amazing content, and you're writing is on a whole different level, but your YouTube videos don't quite hit the mark. I'd love something more long form, less stock footage, more frameworks.
