Compound Learning: The Most Powerful Tool For Acquiring Skills Faster
Learn to spend time with knowledge, one day at a time
Compound interest is a powerful principle — a small amount of money can grow into large amounts over time if left alone. If you don’t interfere with the process unnecessarily, you will reap the benefit with time.
In simple terms, it’s interest on interest.
It’s got the snowball effect. As long as it keeps “moving”, it will get bigger — all things being equal. Anyone can benefit from it. Compound interest is why people invest money early in life.
“Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it. He who doesn’t, pays for it.” Albert Einstein said.
The compounding principle can be applied to learning.
You can have the same effect. Knowledge begets knowledge. Over time you will become a powerhouse. With enough wisdom about how some things work, you can connect ideas better and use them to your advantage.
The ability to pick up skills over time can change your life.
A relentless learner can accumulate the proper knowledge and skills to become a better person, an indispensable employee and a free thinker.
