  • Tim Ferriss stops by the Googleplex to talk about his latest book and his philosophy on learning.
    What if you could become world-class in anything in 6 months or less?
    The 4-Hour Chef isn't just a cookbook. It's a choose-your-own-adventure guide to the world of rapid learning.
    #1 New York Times bestselling author (and lifelong non-cook) Tim Ferriss takes you from Manhattan to Okinawa, and from Silicon Valley to Calcutta, unearthing the secrets of the world's fastest learners and greatest chefs. Ferriss uses cooking to explain "meta-learning," a step-by-step process that can be used to master anything, whether searing steak or shooting 3-pointers in basketball. That is the real "recipe" of The 4-Hour Chef.
    You'll train inside the kitchen for everything outside the kitchen. Featuring tips and tricks from chess prodigies, world-renowned chefs, pro athletes, master sommeliers, super models, and everyone in between, this "cookbook for people who don't buy cookbooks" is a guide to mastering cooking and life.
    The 4-Hour Chef is a five-stop journey through the art and science of learning:
    1. Meta-Learning. Before you learn to cook, you must learn to learn. META charts the path to doubling your learning potential.
    2. The Domestic. DOM is where you learn the building blocks of cooking. These are the ABCs (techniques) that can take you from Dr, Seuss to Shakespeare.
    3. The Wild. Becoming a master student requires self-sufficiency in all things. WILD teaches you to hunt, forage, and survive.
    4. The Scientist. SCI is the mad scientist and modernist painter wrapped into one. This is where you rediscover whimsy and wonder.
    5. The Professional. Swaraj, a term usually associated with Mahatma Gandhi, can be translated as "self-rule." In PRO, we'll look at how the best in the world become the best in the world, and how you can chart your own path far beyond this book.

    I think Tim Ferriss' advice is good for beginners who want to be functional at a skill, but in order to get to the next level there is no real shortcut. You have to spend the time, meaningfully of course, to up your game.

  • @orangeOHJAY
    @orangeOHJAY 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I think Tim's approach is not promising insanely quick mastery, but speeding up the learning process by making it more efficient by utilizing Pareto's principle; he makes clear that what he means by "world class" is not top tier mastery, but the top 5%, which is completely achievable with the principles he teaches. Many people take a haphazard approach to mastery that wastes months if not years. The method he outlines here is completely ingenious, and maximizes efficency.

    He does have that unnerving charismatic aspect, but a lot of his information is actually valuable. Valid points regarding diet and nootropics, especially. Everybody DOES work differently, but some of his suggestions are honestly worth a shot.

  • @DelDeVries
    @DelDeVries 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great concept to provide instruction on accelerated learning within the context of learning to cook. An interesting task to learn, but the valuable benefit is actually the accelerated learning model of Deconstruction / Structure / Sequencing / Stakes.

      its been 7 years, i hope youre doing even better then well!! i know how you feel, you love alot and are curious about alot but when youre put in a position where you have to do it like school its differenyt.maybe the difference between your approach to school and spanish or cooking is that with the latter you know your why. if youre struggling find a way to understand why you ahould care about school, there will be something. also approach it like you do with your love for spanish be curious and have fun! GOOD LUCK MAN 💛💛💛💛💛 IM SURE YOURE KILLING IT, IF NOT THERE IS ALWAYS TODAY 🌟🌟🌟

  • @Rickertt
    @Rickertt 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I disagree, I do a lot of cooking and do not own a scale. Most recipes do not require exact measurement and the recipe itself is not set in stone, a rough ratio is usually all you need. If you do not think in measurements but in consistency and constantly taste what you are cooking, you do not need a scale. Actually you will learn a lot about you are doing and why, much more so than when using a scale.
