Module #3

Breakthrough Knowledge

In this module, you will learn how to rapidly find breakthrough knowledge in a world of information overwhelm.

While most people learn mainstream or junk information that hurts their career and business success, you learn rare, valuable knowledge, which helps notice opportunities and skills that most people miss — ultimately making you in-demand.

What would breakthrough knowledge look like for you? That could mean finding the 1 chapter in the book that can have the most impact… or identifying the rare expert who is 
successful from skill, not luck (so that you can replicate their success).

Module #4

Sell Your Sawdust

In this module, you will learn how to create and capture breakthrough knowledge, so that you never forget what you’ve learned. You’ll also learn how to turn your notes into assets you share or sell, which helps you build your reputation as an expert. I call this process “Sell Your Sawdust”.

While note-taking has been increasingly popular, I realized that there are two problems that most methods don’t address:

Note-taking often leads to procrastination. (It might make you feel productive, but it doesn’t lead to real-world results.) And, capturing notes isn’t enough — from my years of taking notes, it doesn’t lead to the most learning.

Module #5

Smart Bets

In this module, you will learn how to turn your learning into action, and get results in the real world.

Once you’ve absorbed and transformed breakthrough knowledge — making it an integral part of your mind — you will learn how to make smart bets.

Smart bets are life experiments that have the potential to change your life. They are what the most successful people like Jeff Bezos do to overcome career plateau and find big opportunities.

Module #6

Breakthrough Results

In this module, you will take your smart bets to the next level by learning how to get feedback (be it data or conversations with other people). This is how you will create breakthrough results.

According to Anders Ericsson — researcher of the 10,000-Hour Rule — and other researchers, feedback is what separates top performers from everyone else.

Why? It’s how you know if learning is actually creating results or not. Without feedback, you risk learning or applying the wrong things (without even realizing!)

Learning Ritual Vault Access

You also get a “database” of my in-depth answers to almost any learning challenge you might face. Let me explain…

In each weekly Q&A session, Learning Ritual students have asked me many questions.

My team and I have recorded all of these group coaching sessions, and organized the recordings into a list that you can assess anytime you want.

We even highlight the exact questions Learning Ritual course students have asked, so that you can skim through the list and pick out ones that are most relevant to your situation.
