Publisher's Synopsis
An approach to instantly make sense of a topic when learning from scratch and teaching yourself.
Embarking on anything new is daunting and scary. That's why you need a blueprint to point you in the right direction and make sure that you are moving forward.
The skill of self-learning is the ability to change your circumstances and get from Point A to Point B.
The Self-Learning Blueprint is the compass that will get you to Point B. Numerous scientifically-proven techniques are covered, as well as an overarching set of plans to ensure that you synthesize and truly understand new information.
We all think we know how to learn, but the truth is, we don't know much beyond taking notes and re-reading them. This won't get you where you want to go. Learn how to learn from the ground up, all by yourself, on any subject matter. This goes beyond simple improved study skills - you will understand the nature of information itself.
Become an auto-didact: higher grades, better job prospects, more goals achieved, and the key to unlocking all doors in life.
