Ultralearning

I have applied an exam to get a certification about a profession which relates to electricity engineer. It’s said that it is exclusive and difficult to pass. I read books make it stick, a book on metacognition. I found that the tranditional learning such as repeating is waste of time. Rehearsaling is the key to learn something new quicker.

For suppliment purpose, I’m just reading a book called Ultralearning. The important thing before I learn is metalearning. That is matter of questioning myself : why I need to learn these things?

Obviously my primary motivaton is to make my cashflow better. Getting this tricles me about additional 20 thousand yen (125$) a month. This can mitigate my sickness of having a car. Moreover I can learn more about electricity more deeply.

According to bruecrat in Japan. Electrical engineer of my range will lacks about 1,000. As long as I’m beaten by artificial intelligence or the license system scraped, I can retain my advantange. This makes my income better.

Of course this is never, ever means I can settle within confort zone. Market situation and technology changes drastically. It’s important that I should not cling to one beliefs.

I believe, instead, I can enjoy learning something new everyday.
