Come up with 10 ideas every day
2. Read the newspaper
3. Play devil’s advocate
4. Read a chapter in a fiction or nonfiction book
5. Instead of watching TV, watch educational videos
6. Subscribe to feeds of interesting information
7. Check in with your favorite knowledge sources
8. Share what you learn with other people
If you find someone to debate and analyze ideas with, you
can add to each other’s knowledge and gain new perspectives.
Also, when you can explain ideas to someone else, it means
you’ve definitely mastered the concept. You can even share
what you learn without directly talking to someone. Many
people like to start blogs so they can engage others in online
dialogue. — Mike Xie
9. Make two “To Do” lists: one of workrelated skills
you want to learn now, and another of things you
want to achieve in the future
For your second list, you can think about long-term goals,
such as whether you want to go into marketing or
architecture. Write down the small steps you need to take to
reach that goal, whether it’s by reading the experts in those
fields or taking classes at a local college. — Manas J Saloi
10. Write an “I Did” list
At the end of each day, write down what you completed. This
will help you feel better about all the things you
accomplished, especially if you’re feeling discouraged. It will
also help you reflect on how productive you were and how
you can re-structure your to-do lists for the next day.
—Claudia Azula Altucher
11. Start a “Stop Doing” list
12. Write down what you learn
You can start a blog or use an app like Inkpad to help you
keep track of everything you learn. Not only will this be a
great way to keep a record of everything you’re doing, but it’s
also a good source of motivation to keep you accountable.
You will want to learn more if you know that at the end of the
day you’ll have to write about it. — Manas J Saloi
13. Stimulate your mind
14. Take online courses
Check out this list of the most popular online courses for
professionals. Make sure you don’t overload yourself; commit
to one to two and truly focus on them. The syllabus will also
keep you on track, so you know you will be doing something
every day, whether it’s listening to a lecture or working on an
assignment. — Manas J Saloi
15. Talk to someone you find interesting
16. Hang out with people who are smarter than you
Spend as much time as you can with smart people. Every day,
you should strive to have a coffee date or walk with someone
who inspires you.
17. Follow your questions
If you see or hear about something cool, don’t just let the
moment pass. Follow up — pursue your curiosity and find the
answer to your question. — Mike Xie
18. Use a wordoftheday app
19. Do something scary
20. Explore new areas
21. Play “smart” games
22. Set aside some time to do nothing
23. Adopt a productive hobby
24. Apply what you learn
