Hey, I hope you’ve been enjoying the bootcamp so far. Tomorrow at 10am PST, I’m opening Learning on Steroids again–the ultimate system for learning faster and achieving more.

Hey, The subject line for this email is a bit misleading, because I actually think procrastination isn’t that important. We’re all going to procrastinate.

Hey, In this email, I’m going to talk about how to make changes that actually stick. Throughout this program you’ve been given a lot of advice for how to improve your studying skills. From broad tactics like weekly/daily goals, to pinpoint skills like the peg method.
