AHA! - Get Smart

by Jay Cross

The missing manual for people who choose to learn for themselves. Here's how. It all boils down to learning, but not the sort of learning you experienced at school. No, this is learning as a life skill. This is experiential learning. You're learning all the time, taking in new information and making sense of it. You learn from experience, from conversations with peers, and from "the school of hard knocks." You're in charge of it, not a teacher or institution. Learning is how you solve problems, grow professionally, and achieve your goals. You'll be mastering two different types of learning. First is learning facts and pointers to information, learning about things. The second is learning is learning to be, for example becoming an effective manager, team leader, or artist. You typically learn facts by reading, look-up, and study. Only experience can teach you to become a contender. This version is still in beta. 0.82.
