You ever read a book that had good advice, but probably won’t be that useful?

Make It Stick was an interesting, well-written book on better approaches to learning/remembering than conventional wisdom about studying. It gave great advice on making contextual connections while learning ideas, tying it to cues, the value of practicing delayed retrieval ‘self quizzing’, applied knowledge strategies, etc and perceptual/inference misfires.

It’s worth reading if you need to retain/use a lot of information toward your specialization,

—but unfortunately the pace of most curriculums doesn’t allow for that kind of time to be spent on any particular topic, and often doesn’t circle back..

I love to learn. I get a lil, happy burst of dopamine from it, but a lot of people who buy this book are doing so with the hope it’ll improve their study skills in general. 🤷🏻‍♀️
