E: The goal of learning should be producing

• #E #p #public
• both Andy Matuschak and Tiago Forte says this
  • what does that mean in different contexts
    • does it have to be output focus or
    • working with yourself and self development
• Is this related to Total Work?
• I thought I had something written up about this somewhere, can't find it.
• ​How does this relate to learning for personal enjoyment? What is the product of learning ancient philosophy? Your blog posts? Your personal transformation?
• It's different to say "a good way of learning is by producing" (ie. writing to learn)
• Related to E: Be careful with monetizing your hobbies
• From notes on [[Just-in-Time Project Management]]
  • Since I've already taken so detailed notes, and interleaved them with many personal observations, I will not try to summarize them here (although perhaps that would have been useful for my learning/retention). Suffice to say that I really like some of his approaches, even though I do sometimes feel like a lot of productivity advice comes from people who are self-employed as Youtubers, bloggers etc, and they naturally have a very different way of organizing their time, and evaluating "Return-on-Attention" than others.
