“ Our hospitality starts with education, but it's also having a welcoming point of view.”Scott Young, Founder of SSWING, an innovative indoor golf training facility in New York City, and an expert golfer joins the podcast today to hash out the meaning of hospitality and dive into his business. They discuss the broader meaning of hospitality in various environments, focusing on creating a welcoming yet challenging space to help people improve. The conversation dives into Scott's analytical approach to golf using math and biomechanics, balancing customer comfort with pushing them to new limits. Scott shares insights from his touring days and stories about the honesty and pressure in golf. The episode highlights the importance of process-oriented improvement and maintaining a clear mental focus.Takeaways: Whether it's golf or any other aspect of life, embrace a mindset of continuous improvement and commit to bettering yourself.Aim to have a consistent and clear process for achieving your goals. In golf, this means focusing on your pre-shot routine and execution rather than being overly concerned with the outcome.Utilize technology such as biomechanics assessments, high-speed cameras, and other tools to get precise feedback and improve your performance.Develop mental resilience by practicing staying focused and present in high-pressure situations. This can be beneficial in sports and various other stressful scenarios in life.If appropriate for your business, consider a membership model to build a committed community and create a steady revenue stream.After any performance or practice, reflect honestly on your process and identify areas where you either succeeded or could improve.Use personal stories and experiences, whether from a professional athlete or your own life, to gain insights and inspire your growth journey.Quote of the Show:“  My essence of SSWING is that every single person who walks through our door leaves a better golfer or a better mover.” - Scott YoungLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-young-28b5569/ Website: https://www.sswing.com/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pivot-the-path/id1713829364 Shout Outs:3:28 - Rosemary Young https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosemary-k-young-92b4821/ 4:54 - Shinnecock Hills Golf Club https://www.shinnecockhillsgolfclub.org/ 4:55 - Augusta National https://www.masters.com/index.html/ 12:04 - New York University https://www.nyu.edu/ 14:17 - David Kennedy https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-kennedy-03821b3/ 16:46 - British Airways https://www.britishairways.com/travel/classic-home/public/en_us/ 16:56 - JFK Airport https://www.jfkairport.com/ 22:15 - PGA https://www.pgatour.com/ 23:46 - Callaway https://www.callawaygolf.com/ 34:43 - Australian Open https://ausopen.com/ 38:09 - Rory McIlroy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rory_McIlroy 38:36 - Tiger Woods https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_Woods 39:30 - Jack Nicklaus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Nicklaus 42:53 - Max Verstappen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Verstappen 42:54: Roger Federer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Federer 47:42 - US Open https://www.usopen.com/

Read the full transcript here. What do schools do well and not so well? In what contexts is memorization most effective? What's the value in teaching something that will probably be forgotten by most students after graduation? How should educators balance time spent on building skills versus acquiring knowledge? Why do students so often fail to apply the skills learned in school (e.g., fractions, solving for unknown quantities, etc.) to problems encountered in everyday life? What is "transfer of learning"? What is educational "directness"? How can we learn languages more efficiently? How does review compare to other forms of study or exam prep? How can we forget less of what we read? Is it really true that "practice makes perfect"? How can we best set ourselves up emotionally for optimal learning? What should people do when they hit plateaus in their learning?Scott H.

Life depends on learning. We spend decades in school acquiring an education. We take pride in mastering a craft, or a sport, or a game. The things we do in our careers or even just for fun are enjoyed to a large extent because we feel we are capable of getting better at them.  We yearn for mastery. But learning can be elusive. We may spend hours studying and still not do well on an exam.  Improvement can be fickle - if it comes at all. Sometimes we improve effortlessly, and other times it can be a slog. Many of us can spend years hitting a tennis ball, playing chess, or working at our jobs, and not reliably get better at any of them. Why is that and more importantly, what can be done?  In Scott Young's new book, Get Better at Anything: 12 Maxims for Mastery, he explores the science of skill acquisition, illustrating the basic principles that can help us get better at the things that matter most. Scott was a prior guest on the show in episode 37 when we discussed his Wall Street Journal bestseller Ultralearning. He is also a podcast host and, a computer programmer. Since 2006, he has published weekly essays to help people learn and think better. His work has been featured in the New York Times, Pocket, and Business Insider, on the BBC, and at TEDx. While he doesn't promise to have all the answers, he does give us a good place to start.  Scott is a wellspring of knowledge about learning and provides a way for us all to be able to live our lives more fully.

THE A TEAM Inverness Caledonian Thistle is officially in administration as of Tuesday 22 October 2024.  On 2nd October, (then) interim ICT chairman Panos Thomas issued a club statement summarising the key findings of financial consultant Alan Savage's forensic audit, announcing the launch of a ‘Save ICT' crowdfunding appeal and warning that ‘unless the Appeal can raise £200k immediately, and certainly by Wednesday, 16th October, then Administration is inevitable.' On 21st October, after several days of rumour about last-minute investment, (now) interim chairman Scott Young confirmed that the administration process had begun. In this epic episode of TWS, recorded on the evening of the 21st, host Andrew Moffat is joined by Stevie Riley, Andrew Young, pod original gangster Ross Mackenzie, The Press and Journal's Paul Chalk, and some special guests to discuss what administration will mean for the staff and supporters of Caley Thistle, how the club got to this point, and what the future might look like. Is this the next stage of an inexorable decline, or the start of a much-needed reset? And despite it all we do try to have a bit of craic as well cause you've got to, haven't you?  Let's shuffle! 00:01:07 – Introduction and initial thoughts. Moff introduces the panel and gauges feelings about administration now being a reality. 00:08:18 – The October 8th meeting. At the recent open meeting in the stadium's Highlander suite, Scott Young, Alan Savage and Charlie Christie spoke to supporters. We discuss the key points that emerged from it and the mood among those in attendance.     00:18:51 – What will administration look like for ICT? Insights from the interim chairman.  We are joined for this part of the podcast by Interim Chairman Scott Young, who talks us through the potential timescale and structure of the administration process, the role of the administrators, the implications for club staff and for the club's SPFL status. He also reflects on his short but eventful time on the board and what his role might be going forward. 00:43:12 – The squad: what next? An inevitable consequence of administration will be the loss of some players. We discuss what the criteria for retaining or releasing players could be and what the squad might look like after the administrators' work is done. And if the manager, as he suspects, has already had his last game in charge, who might succeed him?    00:54:40 – The view from the north stand. Some die-hard ICT fans discuss their feelings about the imminence of administration. 00:56:35 – The A-Word: a fan's perspective. We are joined by Livingston fan Liam Innes, who reflects on what it was like to watch the club he loves go through administration – twice! 01:17:23 – The old regime(s). So how did ICT get to this point? We consider not only the mismanagement and negligence of the most recent regime, but also how the seeds of ICT's decline were probably sown much further back in the club's history.     01:30:20 – Talk to me. ICT groundsman Dale Stephen talks about work and life at the Caledonian Stadium under the shadow of administration. 01:59:00 – More views from the north stand. Our ICT die-hards share their hopes for the future. 02:00:40 – Game by game. Finally, some discussion of matters on the pitch! We review the recent games against Arbroath and Annan in the league, either side of the narrow Challenge Cup loss to Livingston. 02:16:50 – League Lookahead. A very brief chat about the upcoming fixtures against Dumbarton, Kelty, Cove Rangers, Alloa and Queen of the South. 02:27:20 – The New Era. Once the administration process is over, what might the future look like for ICT and how can we make it work? We share some thoughts and hopes. 02:38:09 – Competition winner. No competition in this episode, unfortunately, but we do reveal the winner of the 30th anniversary away youth top donated by Alan Savage. 02:39:50 – Final thoughts. A few last reflections from our supporters and from this episode's panel. The Season Starts Here.

Known for his ambitious project of learning MIT's 4-year computer science curriculum in just one year without attending any classes, Scott has dedicated his career to understanding how we can learn faster, overcome our fears, and achieve mastery in any field.  Join us for an insightful conversation with Scott Young as he shares with us the art and science of ultra learning—how we can master new skills at an accelerated pace and break through the barriers that hold us back. What are the most effective ways to learn quickly and efficiently? How can we overcome the fear of failure and the anxiety that often accompanies new challenges? Scott shares his expert insights into the principles of deliberate practice, the importance of feedback, and the myths that often cloud our understanding of talent and ability.

Welcome to episode #948 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #948. Scott Young is the kind of person who doesn't just ask, “How do I get better at this?” He asks, “How do we really learn anything?” That question led him on some fascinating paths - like the time he decided to tackle MIT's computer science curriculum without ever setting foot in a classroom. No big deal, right? It's this relentless curiosity that drives Scott's work, and he's made it his mission to break down the mystery behind learning and mastery. In this conversation, Scott digs into his latest book, Get Better at Anything - 12 Maxims for Mastery. This isn't your standard “how-to” guide. Scott's approach is both simple and profound: learning doesn't have to feel like you're banging your head against a wall. He argues that three things really matter when it comes to leveling up - seeing how others do it, putting in the right kind of practice, and getting feedback that's actually useful. If you nail these three, progress follows. It's that simple… but, of course, the devil is in the details. Scott's no stranger to experimentation. From his MIT Challenge to learning four languages in a year during his Year Without English project, he's someone who lives what he preaches. He's constantly pushing the limits of what's possible with learning, and his insights into how we can accelerate our progress - whether at work, in our personal lives, or even in the smallest tasks—are both practical and inspiring. We also touch on some big questions, like how AI might change the way we learn and work. Is AI the future of education? Scott's got a way of making the complex simple, and our chat is packed with insights that make you rethink how you approach learning. If you've ever struggled to get better at something or wondered if there's a more effective way to improve, Scott's ideas are definitely worth hearing. Scott was on the show a few years back to dicuss his first book (which is another “must-read” titled, Ultralearning). Scott also has an amazing program with another one of my favorite thinkers, Cal Newport, titled Life Of Focus for you to check out. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 1:08:40.

The concept of “learning how to learn” focuses on meta-learning, which involves improving one's own learning strategies. Instead of just absorbing information, meta-learners refine the skills that make learning itself more effective. Cognitive science supports various learning strategies by exploring how the brain processes information. Techniques such as spaced repetition, active recall, and interleaving can improve long-term retention and understanding. Improving abilities in specialized areas, like reading and interpreting research, involves strategic approaches. Similarly, becoming more knowledgeable about nutrition requires staying updated with the latest research and critically evaluating findings to boost proficiency and confidence in the field. In this podcast episode, Scott Young discusses these themes, offering insights from his work on learning optimization. He shares practical methods for improving learning efficiency, particularly in reading research and expanding knowledge in nutrition.

With a background deeply intertwined with education due to his parents being teachers, Scott's insights are grounded in both personal and professional realms.In this episode, we uncover effective strategies to help teens become better learners and improve their skills more efficiently. Scott shares fascinating insights about retrieval practice—a method that solidifies memory retention better than repeated exposure. While traditional beliefs suggest problem-solving without guidance builds deep understanding, Scott reveals how observing and emulating can often yield better results.Mastery Through ExamplesFor Scott, learning isn't just about trial and error; it's about studying examples and getting comprehensive practice. The perfect balance involves ‘See, Do, and Feedback'—a cycle that ensures effective learning. Scott also touches on cognitive load theory, explaining how our limited working memory plays a role in learning and offers practical advice for leveraging this understanding to aid teens in their academic endeavors.Failing ForwardFacing challenges is essential for growth, but Scott emphasizes the need to strike a balance between challenges and successes. Early failure without appropriate support can demotivate teens. Instead, Scott advocates for building confidence through small wins before presenting more complex challenges. This method not only helps teens stay motivated but also prepares them to handle tougher problems with resilience.Creating Practice LoopsA significant part of Scott's methodology is designing practice loops. Ensuring that teens get enough variability in their practice sessions is crucial for long-term retention and generalization of skills. Rather than sticking to blocked practice where the focus is on one type of problem, Scott encourages mixed approaches to help teens become flexible and adept problem solvers in various contexts.Fear and LearningFear is another major obstacle in the learning process. Whether it's test anxiety or fear of public speaking, these emotions take up cognitive resources that could be better used for problem-solving. Scott discusses exposure therapy as a way to help teens gradually face their fears, thereby reducing their anxiety over time. He underscores that persistent effort in overcoming fears is key to long-term mastery and success.In the Episode…Our conversation with Scott yields numerous actionable strategies that can be beneficial for parents looking to boost their teens' learning potential. Beyond the highlights mentioned above, we also delve into:- Why early assessment in classrooms can be demotivating and how mastery learning can help.- The importance of creativity and productivity in achieving mastery.- Strategies for unlearning bad habits and adopting better techniques.- Real-world examples of how small adjustments in teaching techniques can lead to big improvements.For those interested in diving deeper, you can explore more of Scott's insights at scotthyoung.com where you can also find his books and podcast. Tune into this episode to learn how to foster an environment conducive to mastering new skills and to encourage your teens to reach their full potential.

Life revolves around learning—in school, at our jobs, even in the things we do for fun. But we often don't progress in any of these areas at the rate we'd like. Consequently, and unfortunately, we often give up our pursuits prematurely or resign ourselves to always being mediocre in our classes, career, and hobbies.Scott Young has some tips on how you can avoid this fate, level up in whatever you do, and enjoy the satisfaction of skill improvement. Scott is a writer, programmer, and entrepreneur, and the author of Get Better at Anything: 12 Maxims for Mastery. Today on the show, Scott shares the three key factors in helping us learn. He explains how copying others is an underrated technique in becoming a genius, why, contrary to the sentiments of motivational memes, we learn more from success than mistakes, why experts often aren't good teachers and tactics for drawing out their best advice, why you may need to get worse before you get better, and more.Resources Related to the PodcastScott's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #557 — Grow, Adapt, and Reinvent Yourself Through UltralearningThe Secret of Our Success: How Culture Is Driving Human Evolution, Domesticating Our Species, and Making Us Smarter by Joseph HenrichAoM Podcast #896: The Art and Science of Getting UnstuckAoM Article: Want to Become a Better Writer?
