(2) The 5-hour rule: How to turn a wasted day into a successful one by Jonny Thomson (5 mins)
The 5-hour Rule: Spend an hour daily (five days a week) on learning and reflection. Figures like Benjamin Franklin and Elon Musk follow this.

Applying the Rule: Learn through varied mediums, embrace and learn from failures, and regularly reflect on experiences.

(3) Steelmanning: How to Find the Truth by Helping Your Opponent by Chris Meyer (7 mins)
Steelmanning Defined: Presenting an opponent's argument in its strongest form, contrasting with strawmanning, which misrepresents it.
Three-Step Challenge:
Understand and articulate the opposing viewpoint.
Collaborate with opponents to enhance their argument.
Defend the opponent's stance against your original belief.
Practical Value: While time-intensive, steelmanning deepens understanding and promotes genuine dialogue. Other methods like Rapoportโs Rule offer similar benefits.
