Solopreneur,

If you want to do anything of the below:

• Make a living as a solopreneur, but don’t have a skill that you can monetize

• Are learning a digital skill right now

• Want to become better at your craft

• Make more money

…I wrote this edition for you.

Let’s face it:

Trying to learn a new skill as a solopreneur can feel harder than convincing my grandpa that AI isn’t “the work of the devil”.

There’s so much information out there that:

• You don’t know where to start

• Learning feels overwhelming

• New skills go in one ear and out the other

But recently, I discovered the Feynman learning technique - and it’s helping me master new skills faster than a squirrel on a tray of red bulls.

Today, you’ll learn:

• Why trying to master too many skills at once will ruin your income potential

• How the Feynman Technique creates a hypercharged feedback loop to embed skills faster

• My "High Income Feynman Finnator" template for acquiring high-value skills in weeks

Let’s d-d-d-d-dive in! 🤿

How I went from 0 to 300k profits in 7 months

9 months ago, the FTX scam stole my hard-earned money.

But through consistent content creation and the use of AI, I was able to get back on my feet again in record time.

That’s why I built my course, the AI Audience Accelerator.

It will teach you:

• How to create a week's worth of content in 1 hour

• How to create content that sounds like YOU

• AI Systems that skyrocketed my growth

1820 people joined the course and their reviews are incredible.

Why trying to master too many skills at once will ruin your income potential

When I speak to aspiring solopreneurs, their #1 mistake is trying to learn too many skills simultaneously.

They tell me:

"I'm trying to learn Facebook ads, sales, copywriting, funnels..."

I get it - when you're excited about entrepreneurship, you want to learn ALL the skills RIGHT NOW.

When I first started my solopreneur journey, I got overexcited and tried to learn 100 monetizable skills at once:

• 💸 Funnel building

• 💸 Facebook ads

• 💸 Copywriting

• 💸 Crypto trading

• 💸 NFT flipping

I felt like my brain was a block of Swiss cheese.

Most of the information went straight through the holes, retaining almost nothing.

Trying to cram so much in led to overwhelm, frustration, and terrible skill integration.

I wasn’t making money on any of them.

Here was my issue:

Each high-income skill has so much depth and complexity that trying to juggle multiple ones leads nowhere fast.

The solopreneur superpower is monopoly mastery of one specific, high-value skill.

Only after mastering 1 skill should you stack other skills on top of that foundation and watch your earnings soar.

Here’s why focusing on 1 skill at first is smarter:

• More money: True expertise in one area (like copywriting) makes way more than flitting between 3 low-level skills

• Less overwhelm: Fewer mental tabs to keep open

• Better retention: Your brain needs to fully grasp one concept before moving to the next

I needed to go deep on one skill first. But how do you actually master something quickly?

This is where Richard Feynman comes in...

How the Feynman Technique creates a hypercharged feedback loop to embed skills faster

Becoming a master at something new doesn't happen overnight. It takes time and effort to create true talent stacks.

But here's the thing - most people overcomplicate learning.

Learning, at the end of the day, consists of only three phases, something I call the Cycle of Improvement:

1️⃣ Learn - Gain enough core knowledge to attempt the skill

2️⃣ Do - Try the skill until you get feedback

3️⃣ Feedback - Review feedback and learn from it

(repeat this forever)

The faster you spin through this cycle, the faster you upgrade your skills.

Yet, most people collect feedback slower than Internet Explorer loading Facebook.

And that cripples their learning speed.

This is where the Feynman method comes in.

Instead of waiting for external feedback, Feynman's method acts as a hyper-charged internal feedback engine by letting you teach concepts back to yourself.

It enhances your learning cycle through following 4 simple steps:

1) Learn enough to attempt teaching - First, you learn a skill barely enough to teach it to someone else

2) Explain concepts aloud - Then, you try to explain it to a 5-year old

3) Find gaps in explanations - As you explain the concept, you’ll realize where you lack knowledge to fill in logic gaps.

4) Review and simplify - Summarize your explanation and make it simpler

This method lets you precisely target weak spots, avoiding time wasted practicing known concepts.

Accelerating your loops is the ultimate skill-building rocket fuel.

Feynman's technique squeezes a year of learning into weeks by simulating on-demand feedback.

This will be you after using the technique:

Let’s dive into it:

My "High Income Feynman Finnator" template for acquiring high-value skills in weeks

This prompt walks you through an interactive exercise to learn any high-income skill:

I want to learn the high income skill of [INSERT HIGH-INCOME SKILL]. Please act as my personal tutor and guide me through the key concepts I need to understand using the Feynman Technique.

Step 1 (Attention): Ask me 3 diagnostic questions to evaluate my current familiarity with [USER SKILL]. Keep this tight and focused (100 words).

Step 2 (Interest): Recommend 2-3 beginner-friendly resources for me to get an overview understanding of [USER SKILL] basics and core concepts. Resources should take <1 hr total. I will briefly summarize my key learnings from these (150 words).

Step 3 (Desire & Action): Analyze my summary, point out any gaps or vagueness in my fundamental knowledge. Ask follow-up questions to clarify and fill those gaps. Be specific and scannable (300 words). 

Step 4 (Interest): I explain again in simple terms. Redirect me if lacking clarity/ specifics (150 words).

Step 5 (Desire & Action): Analyze responses and continue exchange until I’ve demonstrated solid comprehension. Wrap with a memorable one-line summary (250 words).  

Step 6 (Action): Have me explain [USER SKILL] to a beginner audience by writing a ≤500 word "copywriting basics cheat sheet", synthesizing my new knowledge.

Please maintain a casual, conversational tone throughout. Let's begin with Step 1 and getting those resources!

The AI will directly give you 3 questions to kickstart your learning process and 2-3 resources to get started.

Continue the chat

Later, it walks you through 3 more steps:

1) Finding gaps in your current knowledge (based on your replies)

2) You’ll re-explain yourself to fill in the knowledge gaps

(this repeats until the AI recognizes you understand the skill)

3) It helps you write a beginners’ manual to understand the skill for yourself, and for your audience

If you want to learn a high-income skill, you don’t need more input. You just need this prompt and follow it up with execution.

WRAP UP

I’m putting some final touches on my upcoming course right now.

I’m unsure if a view like this makes it easier or harder….

Whatever the answer might be, the release will be in around 3 weeks,

so stay tuned :).

Keep diving,

Ole
