Micromastery
Posted: Sat Oct 12, 2019 12:30 pm
In regards to Robert Twigger's book "Micromastery: Learn Small, Learn Fast and Find the Hidden Path to Happiness" I'd like to start a topic, which covers micromastery-skills.
It has already been mentioned here Conversations that Changed Everything by ego and talked about in the following posts by jacob, 7wannabe5 and jennypenny. I'm personally interested in such micromastery-skills, because they cover what I strive for in regards to the Renaissance Man / Polymath.
Add any micromastery-skill you find useful, enjoyable. important, beneficial, productive, ... I intend only to brainstorm and not to judge.
I start by posting the originally mentioned micromastery-skills from Robert Twigger's book Micromastery:
