ADVICE

Prioritize Sleep and Avoid Alcohol

Prioritize getting good sleep as it is critical for brain health and peak performance.
Avoid alcohol because it harms your brain cells and reduces productivity the next day.

ADVICE

Block Time for Learning Weekly

Allocate at least two hours each week specifically for learning and skill improvement.
Schedule this time on your calendar as non-negotiable and free from work tasks.

INSIGHT

Understand Progress as Step Ladder

Progress in any skill happens in a non-linear pattern of leaps and plateaus.
Plateaus are periods of stabilization, not failure, allowing you to integrate growth.
