5:58 Bill wasn't talking about JIC, JIT per se... He was saying that when you're learning something, it's beneficial to first create a framework for that knowledge instead of just trying to cram in random facts in your brain without having nothing to associate them with. When you have a framework, e.g. the history of science, it's much easier to learn new things that associate to that framework. They're not just random facts anymore.
Elon Musk has spoken about this as well. He said that you need to learn basics well so that you can add up to that knowledge and likened it to a tree. Saying that you need to grow a trunk and branches first so you have something to hold leaves.
Agree, you need an foundation, an outline to where the information fits in the grand scheme of things to give it meaning. That makes you maintain the information better.
That's great man, you explained it really well
Yeah I think that's what he was trying to say, background and context makes it easier to gain an in-depth understanding of any piece of information and actually learn from it rather than just memorize random ideas.
I agree. That is what Gates was trying to communicate which makes a lot of sense.
It’s all coded language for pedos
This is great!!! My take away:
1) Take notes to integrate the information within your being.
2) Read for current challenges you are facing, not for anticipated/futuristic challenges that may or may not come.
3) Keep in mind that you don't know what you don't know.
Thank you very much for the valuable content 🙏
I do the following that Gates does:
1. Take down notes in the margin. (I do something more: I make cross-references to other works that I have read or studied. I even do my index to the book.)
2. I am a paper-book person.
3. I read all kinds of books well beyond my needs and requirements. (I prefer to read books about things that are outside my province).
4. I make it a point to read all my books cover to cover. (I shall, therefore, choose books that I would definitely want to read).
Sarah Theory Use a dictionary...
@Sarah Theory just google it, man
I have a notebook for every nonfiction book I read/topic I read about.
I LOVE reading paper books. I don't know why, but it helps me get more immersed in it and ready to learn.
And I always read the full book so I can get every bit out of it.
@@khusbu923 I'm still training myself to be a note-taker, so I basically just buy a small notebook (I like the travelers notebooks) and write down any points that stand out to me that I know I'd like to remember. Or, if the way it's worded it really makes sense to me, I'll highlight it in the book. But I prefer to write it in a notebook so I can look through the notebook to find it instead of searching through the book.
@@khusbu923 I have found that every few chapters, I get better about taking notes and with each book I take better/more notes, so I no longer stress about doing it right the first time and just focus on honing the skill. I've been starting with shorter books that are easier to comprehend without note taking so I can use those for practice.
Most people say reading is stressful and boring
But when you read it's actually fun
The story turns into a movie
True I sort of make the story happen in my mind imaging the situation. Those remain for a long time in memory I think because it takes real mental effort...
Yes, they say it is stressful and boring, which is probably because a lot have a very short attention span these days. To read you have to sit down and really focus on just one thing to not lose the train of thought. What is also required is 'effort'. Watching TV/Netflix for example requires absolutely none. That is far easier.
Interviewer: What books do you read?
Bill Gates: Yes.
This meme isn't funny.
@@nicb.1411 you got to admit, it is funny
@@nicb.1411 it is, you are just hypodynamic
@@nomorebs3626 You're overly enthusiastic and don't understand what comedy is. And your breath stinks.
@@nicb.1411 😂🤣🤣
Man you are incredible. I can guarantee you’re going to be huge. Can’t wait for you to reach 1M. You deserve it. Keep it up!
@@AndrewKirbys well estimated ;)
He unfortunately still hasent reached a mill
I agree 100%
I think you misunderstood what Gates told about history of science. It’s more about how science develops through essays/errors, intuition, how it’s open more questions than answers and the journey which is easier to integrate than a only logical connection. Time travel gives an additional dimension.
It’s not about efficiency.
Intuition eternally
Can't not agree anymore
Hey, the list of Bill gates’ recommended books is down
Yeah does someone have a second link or sth
Bill gates has his own yt channel check it out or u can go on goodreads app to find
Yeeahhh
@Kellie Nguyen thanks 💯
Link is not working for Gates Booklist.
Yes, still broken link, possibly outdated permission...
I love that this guy gives an outline before jumping in. And he talks about things you can actually lookup. So different from many youtube videos which are stretched out with very little content or talking points and lots of "I think" and "I feel."
One of the YT videos from where i pick more information, many interesting things: the differences btw the jic and the jit method, the importance on linked the reading with the current questions in your life, the importance of elaborate what you read maybe with a essay or a production to integrate the new knowledge bubble, and the final division in themes that you know or dont know, which is a powerful tool to select what kid of adventure you wanna face with the next lecture. Thrank you from Arg!
What a great video! You articulated the points well, and gave clear recommendations. I think that reading books outside of my domain/JIC is still important because it helps expand my mind, and it fosters more creativity and ideas when I go back to my own domain/set of problems.
Interesting observation on the idea that books teach you things you dont know that you didnt knew. Reading good books, really opens up a new perspective to things - and gives you an oppurtunity to apply it and grow as a person.
Kobe did write a book called "The Mamba Mentality"
Awesome video, I loved the insights you gave us! I couldn’t do anything but subscribe, keep up with the good work 👌💪
With JIT and JIC methodology, I’m unsure how you came to the conclusion that this was what Bill was trying to say. I was thinking he was telling us to read books about the origins of the subject you need to learn about (hence why he said to read about how about the scientists before you learn about the theory they came up with) and then grow your knowledge from there.
Exactly, I was thinking the same
@@HarmanOberoi I worded it quite badly, but I’m glad you see where I’m coming from haha
@Mouk Mütze Ik, I don’t think he replies to people who criticise on his videos, so I guess we’ll never know. I hope he does reply tho cos I’d genuinely like to know how he came to that conclusion.
The Bill Gates recommendation books link is no working.
Same to me
Bill Gates, is for me the modern day rennaissance man, i believe we'll all gain something by picking his brain on the subject of reading... cudos to u for the informative video💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Would like to be introduced to some of best of the authors ever !
Yes, why not?
Mark manson, Robert Greene , Stephen R covey
I'm 46. You're about 18. However, you are like my favourite uncle with all your wisdom and advice. Thumbs up :)
wonder what ur genius uncle is planing -predictions to come by 2035 such as pandemic -ua-cam.com/video/TpqdERCZrSU/v-deo.html
@@TheNecropolis20 so you're trying to work out what the author of this video plans to do in the future, and you're best guess is that he will start a pandemic in the year 2035.
I Have Been An Onlooker On Much Of Your "UA-cam Journey", Andrew. As I Grow Through Watching You, I See How You Have Evolved As Well. It Is Most Enjoyable To Visit A Motivational Speaker's Channel Such As Yours That Has Blossomed... Not Simply Stagnating In A Flat Where You Just Jumped In The Window. Funny As That Was, I Have Truly Enjoyed BOTH Of Our Growths. Thank You, Kind Sir.
Andrew, i loved the video. very well done. i appreciated your take away from Bill G's reading advice. i am curious to know why you recommended the Bible and Principles. wish you great success in your channel.
Hey, is the link for the book recommendations offline?
Gatesnotes.com
I subscribed when you mentioned the bible because for anyone to consider it means they are humble enough to think “maybe i can learn something from this old book”
Thank You, Andrew Kirby! Amazing Video
By taking notes you automatically sum up what is important and meaningful for you
Thank you for sharing your perspectives. Unfortunately the google drive link is not working.
This is beneficial, I will add to your say as I build a topic world into my brain. That helps alot in not forgetting
08 - mayo - 2020 - Desde Ciudad de México - Muchísimas gracias Andrew por este excelente video con magníficos consejos para leer libros. Really, thank you very much. Lot of regards from Mexico City.
Step 1 after watching this
Liked the video
Step 2 : placed order for Relentless on Amazon
Step 3: checked the reading list of Bill gates
Step 4 : scrolled through comments and now posting mine
11:23 - Maybe you want to check out Johari window too
By “incremental knowledge “ Bill just means that you need some reference to make connections to it when reading new content, because associations make it easier to remember it
I found this video incredibly useful for my reading. Thanks 😅😉
I relate to your reading habits (happy face) Thank you for sharing!
Like your transparent stile! Just couldn’t find the book list...
Listening to notes while you sleep helps retain the information,great before exams.
Not every night though,need that proper rem sleep.
Hey Andrew, the point that Bill makes about the science books isn't about demand it's about methodology.
For example, would you rather first read and learn about gluconeogenesis or would you rather start learning about diabetes or even sickness in general...? It's a top down approach so that you won't be faced with huge complexity right away.
Spot on
@@AndrewKirbys would you have time to chat this week? I would be very interested in a discussion about your projects
Hi that was a really useful vid. Thanks for that Andrew
On the Ford JIC (Just in Case) comment, I do not recall they operated in the early days with a massive amount of inventory. The mantra back then was you could have your car in any color, as long as it was black!
Fantastic video...the google drive link is down btw
When I first started watching your videos I was so surprised to see the number of views your videos would get. I expected the numbers to be much higher. Your videos are high quality and I hope that your channel will grow tremendously. Keep up the good work!
Great job. Keep the truth alive and knowledge flowing. 💖💖💖
Love your articulation... wonderful video
11:38 another great example could be Thinking fast and slow, it shows very well how human mind works and I think that is quite an important thing to know
'percolate throughout your identity', nice line
This is very inspiring. Thank you !
Thank you Andrew, you've been very helpful 😘
Appreciate!!!
So good man 🙏🏾🙏🏾 So informative - Thank you!
The reading list is a broken link :( But I enjoyed watching your video, thanks!
Thank you so much, this video is enlightening, and especially ford and toyota example was really helpful to get the main idea.
Hello Andrew: I clicked on the link to access Bill Gates' reading list and received an error. Is there another way to access it?
Gatesnotes.com
Just reading and I promise you in a day you became successful person
Hi.. It is a nice video.. Just one point I would like to mention is that Bill Gates was not talking about JIC or JIT . His idea was to convey message that whatever one learns it is important to create a framework - this enables one to add pieces to the framework and get an complete understanding of the topic instead of reading randomly
Amazing video please keep on making with new content and this exact research attitude ..loved it
Great.
I'm from Brazil.
Thanks for the content.
Thanks Andrew😊
Very good content. Watched to the end. Thank you
Great video, very helpful!
Your video is brilliant. Thank You!!
This is the first video I've watched from your channel and it's amazing! Totally agree the Bible has so much wisdom on things we don't realise we don't know
Your voice is so pleasant to the ears. Makes me listen attentively. It's attractive. I had to pause the video just to say this.
love at first hearing
Dude, love your content! Keep it up.
thanks, notes in margin, ok one needs a notebook! i like hardcopy book but kindle helps one read faster
the quality of audio and the surround sound in this video is amazing🤯
Clear video and direct to the point. Thank you for simplifying! Highly appreciate it.
Great Video. I would have two recommedations, thought. It is always critical to assume what someone else might was thinking. In my opinion, its important to shift the perspective. "This is how I understood the Argument...." gives benefit to the information loss, that happens in every "thought transaction". I very much love the books from Rolf Dobelli, an author and businessman from Switzerland.(books are also av. in Englisch and the website "getabstact" is great, too) He refers on the matter of finishing every book, u started, to the bias of sunken costs. Especially with historical novels, e.g. about scientist, i adopted that few. For me, there is No Point in continuing reading, if the "coding" of information from the author doesnt fit with my "encrypting" capabilities. Great vid, I will continue to discover your channel.🖖😎
Brother I can do nothing for you but I'm gonna subscribe your channel because you're really an awesome speaker and the quality of your video was also great.
Keep it up 👍😍
re p. 2 - incremental learning is imho like maths is learn the additions, and then multiplications will be easier. So do not learn too difficult staff, instead apply progression - this esp applies to science etc
Think about this; if I have not been to Rome before now and I know nothing about Rome, there won't be anything exciting about travelling to Rome nor will I be able to relate with Rome so well unlike when I have read or known about Rome in history books, novels, myths, TV etc.
The same applies to science.
You cannot relate with science or get so attached to it easily if you have no exposure to the origins of the part science you are introduced to. Bill Gates was talking about how to learn science.
I think this was what Bill Gates meant in the place of your commentary of JIT or JIC, which doesn't seem to apply but however makes some sense.
Well done nonetheless. Keep up the good work. You have some great videos.
You're pretty and fun to listen to. 😊 New subbie and crazy avid reader.
THANK YOU💪
The reading list is no longer available. Please update the link.
Thank you very much
Hey I just stumbled on your video. The link to Bill's list says error... Can you please take a look at it?
So, Bill doesn't believe in using a tablet to read a book?
He mentioned having made the transition, but prefers paper when preparing for bed.
Bill Gates wasn't talking about JIT or JIC. He was talking about what is widely known as syntopical reading. The more you read on any given topic, the more you understand about that topic and hence every incremental piece of knowledge that you now come across (by way of reading) becomes much easier to understand/absorb/work with.
what a great video! very clear action points
Like your video so much! Subscribed!
Hey, Andrew! I love your videos. They have helped me A LOT. I lead a sustainable farming community here in Brazil and we do exercises such as negative visualization, view from above and meditation regularly.
The only thing that SADDENS me is that MOST of my friends are not able to understand great content such as yours (and others). I am going to start a UA-cam channel with translations of the most helpful videos out there.
Would you like to be included? I just need your authorization and to know what % of the monetization you want, if it ever gets to that. Credit will, of course, be given.
Cheers and either way, thanks for all the great videos.
Your student,
Pedro
Ps.: sorry for spamming, but I am looking to start ASAP. I figure you won't mind some extra comments and likes on every one of your videos
This is amazing！
i automatically assumed he and many others had photographic memory and wouldn't need to take notes. my memory is awful, I'd definitely need notes
I love the way you presented information, subscribed and looking forward for new videos
Your content is 10x better than other motivational channel combined.
Great framework.
And I love the way how you break a difficult concept into definite examples.
Like here 2:07
Not just this video all the other video.
thank you dear channel
Great tips! Thanks
Thank you sooooo much for this information really i needed it.
Thank you Andrew 😊
I think and have learnt and starting to put and keep in practice as procrastination can be come a bad chronic habit and bad lifestyle which steals your life.
They say the graveyard is full of unfulfilled desires,( make sure they are your desires not society's or others)
I choose to be happy and live a balanced life, quality not quantity with material possessions(possessions can steal your life quality) and have a quality life instead
Yes, continually reading good books is the University Of Life, the best education.
Read nonfiction for relaxation and entertainment too.
No TV
And IT for a tool, electronic correspondence, 7youtube business,education self development tool.
Not socially nor entertainment,is the best way to go.
Time is Precious and time life moments is Life itself
Also Listening to audio study notes when you are going to sleep and have on reply, not all night, but a couple of hours.
Good video. The link to Bill Gates' reading list seems broken though.
Loved it bro....good content
Oh! Nice content with nice voice 👍 I just love ur voice 😍
Good job my friend, this will help alot of people
Hi, great video. However, you did not expand on the question whether do we have to finish all the book that we started if it turns out to be boring? Thank you very much perhaps anyone who is reading this also could answer this question. Thanks a lot.
Like your Video. Can you pls Look for the Link of Bill Gates booklist?
Thank you
Thanks for sharing the useful tips!
Thank you very much, very useful advice!
Notes of this video,
Take notes
elaborate info with current understanding,
integrate the case,
apply,
Bill use paper, waiting to make the switch.
Know the history, the base how do they come up to the idea and knowledge, where they are confused, how they solve and pursue the knowledge, what question they ask?
Just in time, find book that helps you right now, and what you need right now.
Findwhat problem, find who has solve, read what they read, or their recommended.
just in case helps provide something you dont not know that you dont know. (something outside of your comprehension)
Somehow I, the algorithm I guess, stumble upon your video. I recently started doing what you say: taking notes on the margins of books and taking notes on my Google Notes app. I did not know this was a thing. Actually, when I was little teachers will not let us write on books as it was considered disrespectful to the book and the authors. However, it is a great technique to have better understanding of the books so we can learn more things.
