Cara Belajar Apapun 100x Lebih Cepet (First 20 Hours)

0:00 In my opinion, this is the most important skill that you must learn, namely the skill to learn any skill as quickly as possible. Nowadays, many people are experiencing layoffs and unemployment, and predictions are that in the next few years there will be major destruction that will make the job market chaotic. And in my opinion, after I reviewed this book, this is one of the guidelines that I think you must study. It's not just about oh, I'm learning public speaking, I'm learning critical thinking, the foundation first. How to learn anything as fast as possible. So, first you have to understand the urgency, okay? The World Economic Forum Future of Jobs report 2025 states that 40% of two of the five skill sets we have will disappear between 2025 and 2030. So,

0:45 almost all reports around the world clearly emphasize the urgency of upskilling and reskilling. If not, we will be pawns for the next 5 years, praying that we won't be laid off or become unemployed. Because market demand has changed a lot. I've uploaded a video before about how important 2030 is to you guys and its impact is no joke. There are around 78 million jobs in the world that will be lost. And this is the prediction starting from low skill labor like cashier, graphic designer. But actually, this isn't all bad news. But based on the latest research , 59 out of 100 people in the world will have skills that will be obsolete or useless by 2030 and beyond. You could say this is already survival mode. The World Economic Forum says that 1 billion people must upgrade their skills if they don't want to lose out to robots and AI. So now

1:31 we have 5 years. It's not long, it's not narrow either . But the point is, how can we ensure that in the next 5 years we are experts in skills that are in high demand? Now let's get to the premise of the book. You may have heard that if we want to be good at something, we have to master it for 10,000 hours. This has become a stereotype abroad, we hear it too often and it has finally become ingrained in our heads. You learn AI, you learn digital marketing, we're already lazy. If we wait to study for 10,000 hours, when will we work? That's the truth. And that sentence was actually first popularized by Malcolm Glatwell in his book Outlier, which I think is actually really good. He dissects what differentiates the 0.1% of the world from the 99.99%. But if people read this book and don't think about it critically, it will actually make them really tired. Even before we start, if you want to be good at playing guitar, you need 10,000 hours, you want to be an athlete, a programmer, a

2:17 writer, or anything else, you need 10,000 hours. But the fun fact is that not many people know that it's not Gladwell's theory. He quoted research from a top psychologist named K. Anders Ericson. He made an in-depth study with a professional pianist. Yes, the results are that really top pianists practice at least 10,000 hours before they can enter the world's elite competition level . Here the problem is that the misconception begins when Gladwell simplifies the conclusion and is something that many people often catch. It's as if anyone who wants to learn anything needs 10,000 hours to be good at it. The only question is, if the world is changing drastically and the demand for skills can change, it won't take five years, even years or months, and suddenly companies will need you to do this. You business people need to learn ads that are completely different. Well, this context is what makes the book I'm reviewing in this video, in my opinion, much more relevant for the majority of you watching. Especially in the next 5 to 10 years

3:03 , the question is how we can learn any skill from zero to master in 20 hours. And this one person systematically proves that you don't actually need to be an expert in this era to get real results. Whether it's good work or results in your business. His name is Josh Koffman and his book The First 20 Hours completely turned the way I think about learning upside down. CF said something like this, "You don't need to be an expert to get good results. You just need to practice intelligently for about 20 hours." So, to get good results, you don't need to be an expert. It turns out it only took 20 hours. I like to call this a framework. Don't just study and randomly read any book. But you have to understand the first concept, namely Rapid Skill acquisition. We're into chapter 1. Now, you guys have to understand that Josh is not an

3:50 academic. Recently, IQ and other things have gone viral. Oh, try this smart person who can do it. He is not a professor at a university, he is an ordinary person. Former corporate employee who is frustrated because he feels like he's wasting so much time just working hard without any direction. If you feel that way, you should read this book. Until he finally realized, the world is changing very fast and people who can learn quickly will always be one step ahead. From there, a new concept emerged called rapid skill acquisition. Any way to learn with minimum time maximum results. By principle, rapid skill acquisition doesn't teach us to look for shortcuts or not shortcuts, but it teaches us not to waste time. Many of us have been putting off learning because we feel we have to go all in from the start, become experts, and be consistent every day. In fact, just by starting and sticking with it for the first 20 hours, you can achieve very significant results. Because

4:35 if you get past the initial phase, which is usually frustrating, learning becomes more automatic. So, there are four important steps that have been used by thousands of people to learn anything from zero to expert. So, let's just get straight to the point. What are the four steps? Actually there are only four steps. Rapid skill acquisition starts from deconstruct, learn, remove, and practice. Let's discuss the first one first, okay? How do you do it, for example, if you are asked to learn AI automation from the start, it will immediately be very confusing, or you could say that it is a big skill with a high bar of entry. Well, the first step is the most foundational step. How to break down a big skill into smaller parts of the most important ones. CVEN said that most people fail to learn because they want to master all aspects at once.

5:21 So, for example, if there are 10 components that you want to learn, you just put it like, okay, these are the 10, but you can't prioritize which one is the most important for step two. So Kovpman said the approach should be the opposite. How to identify the core parts and then focus on the components that give the biggest results first. Maybe if it were me personally, my way of learning was, okay, I want to learn a language, for example Menderin. I will start learning from the easiest, for example learning the number I sans Uyu Chipchuse, I know I messed up when I said it. But if we look at the principles of Covement, from big to small to the most important. And if our goal is conversational, how do we chat and understand when people speak Mandarin, maybe the approach is different. Not using the general curriculum from the reading numbers which have the biggest impact for us, we can go straight to the conversational goal. The example of Pasfman in the book is learning the yukulele. You understand that

6:06 learning music means maybe you've had piano lessons or something like that, right? They can't possibly teach you how to play cords directly. Certainly from the very basics about reading notes, about the scales and so on. It's true that the curriculum is actually like that, but Kaan said it like this. He wants to learn juku lele so he can perform, so he can sing songs. So, from all the music theories, he focuses on the four major chords C, G, A, M, and F. And these are the four most common chords that are enough to play hundreds of pop songs. So in a short time he could sing while playing the yukulele even though he wasn't very good at it. Well, this is one of the most important steps, maybe in my own version. For example, if I want to learn finance or I want to learn business the old way, which is to look for books first, I change the most basic concepts depending on the goals I want to achieve that will have the biggest impact so I can start practicing straight away.

6:52 Well, this step is actually supported by cognitive load theory. This is from Sweller 1998. He was saying that the human brain can only absorb a little information at a time. So if we simplify the process and divide one big skill into smaller components that have the biggest impact according to our goals, it will make it much faster for the brain to focus and develop. And I want to give you a pro tip. For example, if you want to learn skills such as public speaking, you will definitely be confused when you watch, okay, how do you break this down? Simply ask AI. For example, based on the book The First 20 Hours, I want to learn this skill. Please break down the road map with the four steps explained by K but add the goals. for example in 2 weeks I need a presentation to blah blah blah blah blah. Here I will give you some examples of skills with such a simple prom. Well, if it's already broken, you can

7:38 continue to step two. And this is just as important for me. Even step two is heavier than step one. That is, learn enough to be able to correct yourself. Learn enough to correct yourself. For example, if we have broken down the skills into small pieces and can quickly be practiced towards our desired goal, the second step is to just learn the theory, without too much, until we can improve ourselves while practicing. This is very important because the thing that blocks most people who want to learn is that they don't know whether they are right or wrong. Because either they have to depend on teachers or they learn theory which is sometimes too practical until they don't know what is right or wrong. Well, for Kofman, many people think this is in line with the stigma of the majority of people, right? People think they have to understand everything first before they can start practicing. And very often, if you go to tutoring places or schools, for example, it's not far and I already want to practice martial arts. I

8:24 definitely wouldn't have gotten to this point if I hadn't gone through the basics first, all the theory first. Are those martial arts teachers wrong ? Actually, it's not wrong. That's to keep us safe. But we are looking for what will be the quickest way to get results. Well, that's why Kaufman denied that statement. According to him, we should practice immediately after gaining a basic understanding and make mistakes the best teachers. This self-correcting makes us learn without relying on external sources. Research from the National Training Laboratories reinforces this. We can only remember 10% of what we read, but we can absorb up to 75% of what we directly practice and evaluate ourselves. So, the benefit of directly practicing our mistakes is seven times greater than if you continue reading about the skills you want. When you learn guitar, don't spend days watching tutorials . Learn 3 to 4

9:10 basic chords and play simple songs straight away . For example, when we play the guitar and the sound is automatic feedback to our brain. This immediately corrects hand position or finger pressure. This is the essence of just in time learning. Learn when you need to, not learn everything at the beginning. So far, step one and step two are more than enough for you to understand the framework. And for example, if you are confused about how to break it down, seriously remember my prom that used AI, reference the book, tell me what skills you are learning and what the goal is, and when. He will be able to help you guys breakdown. This third step is more about mindset, but it is often underestimated. Remove all obstacles that could interfere with your training process. So this is one of the most expensive prices if you want to learn anything as quickly as possible. For example, if you have plotted the hours for studying, practicing and self-study. Every hour you study, study in the

9:56 same place every day, practice at the same time and keep your cellphone out of your reach. In this way, our body and brain are programmed to focus on being in that situation. According to Ken, learning is not about how long you spend reading or writing practice, but what is important is the quality and focus. And I am a real witness, if I want to learn a new skill and I don't make a framework for learning, for example, on the first day I study very intensely, even 4 to 5 hours, but after that I let it go and then I study again 2 weeks later, the results will be very different if, for example, you study 1 hour per day but consistently at the same time at the same time with a conducive situation, according to me, our brain has a way of absorbing information, there is a compounding while it is still fresh and we are programmed structurally, the information will enter much faster and therefore it will be faster to give benefits to us. And then we close

10:43 with phase 4, a minimum of 20 hours of practice. But actually, according to the book's language, it's called deliberate practice. And this is the essence of this book. Commitment to focused practice for the first 20 hours . According to him, this is the basic difference between people who develop and people who give up. Because according to his research, he calls this phase an emotional barrier. Feeling frustrated, awkward, and inferior. Humans don't really like learning new things. He will definitely return to what he is comfortable with. So, according to him, after the first 20 hours of learning and self-improvement for upskilling have passed, it will become much more natural. And I often find that those of you who want to learn business complain a little, oh I'd rather just do marketing. I'm too lazy to handle operations. I'm lazy about understanding finance, I'm lazy about HR. Actually, if I say oh no, you will be able to get the finances in 20 hours. You will understand how HR manages its contract employees for 20 hours. That

11:28 will make you more realistic and oh, it turns out this skill is attainable. Even in my opinion, you as an employee are not wrong to learn finance, but you must have the right framework and tools to do it. Because in my opinion, one of the people who benefits the most from being able to learn new things as quickly as possible is being an entrepreneur. And if many of you have businesses, I'm sure you understand what I mean, it seems like everything is changing rapidly. Well, that's why I think the foundation has to be right. Especially if you want to learn something new, something old, if possible, it is structured and has neat operations and tools to make business operations neat. One of them that you can learn in less than 20 hours according to me is called ODU. ODU is open source software for business management. It is complete from CRM, accounting, products, warehouse, to purchasing, sales, all integrated in one platform. If everything is in one place, what often happens in businesses is that the recording is not

12:14 synchronized because the tools are different and each one has to be checked again. And what often happens when you use IRP software like Odu, the existing stigma is that it's really expensive, it costs billions. The price could be hundreds of millions . Well, but why do I collaborate with them? ODO is now suitable for use from small businesses to large corporations because their system is modular. So it's not like you have to buy a big software straight away, but you can take the features you need according to your needs. Well, now ODU has also been localized for businesses in Indonesia. From Cortex e-invoice integration , local payments like Chris, Zendit to Shopee connectors for e-commerce players. Even the tax system has been adjusted to the latest VAT regulations . Complete with DPP 111 calculations automatically too. And the price is very affordable in my opinion . For those of you who are curious about how to organize your business so you can learn other things, you can directly learn about implementing the software. Because now is the perfect time. This month Odo

12:59 is holding a business show. So there are dates, there are product demos, there is networking. You can come to the event date according to your business industry and you can check the details in the description. Thank you OD for collaborating and we'll continue again. Earlier we learned about how to learn faster. If you have entered the final phase, it is called deliberate practice. Even if one person says 10,000 hours, another says 20 hours, both still require focus, have a goal and do it repeatedly. And what is called active reflection is much more important than its duration. The difference is that Cment is loud, so it's simpler. 20 hours of quality and consistent practice can make us level up. So, let's go back again, shall we? Why don't more people talk about how to learn anything as quickly as possible and why this is so relevant for you entrepreneurs and employees? We enter the

13:45 final chapter. Conclusion based on market. [Music] Maybe this is the perspective. The world of economics and capitalism actually does n't look at biological aspects. They only look at it from the supply and demand aspect. and we will experience a phase where company efficiency with technology will be prioritized over waiting or teaching employees until they can. That's what happened. Why are there so many layoffs now, so many people are anxious about what they should learn, and upskilling and reskilling are very important topics . Even though it's pretty clear that the next 5 years are going to be crazy, no one has really broken down how to upskill and reskill properly. What prevents people from learning is called the barrier of entry. Kaufman calls it an emotional barrier. Starting from the myth of 10,000 1000 hours that we have to commit to if we want to be good at something to the four concrete steps that prove that anyone who

14:30 wants to learn any new skill as long as they know how can adapt based on the skills needed by the market and I want to repeat the statement about why AI is the best teacher whatever you are still confused about, especially scheduling, breaking down skills, to what extent do we self-correct, all of you can ask AI, even the learning material, you can ask AI so if you are asked why our citizens, quote, do not have adequate skills for future jobs. In my opinion, it's not a matter of whether we can or can't, but rather a matter of whether we want to or not. And believe me, in this era, I don't know what the era will be like in the next 5-10 years, in my personal opinion. Those of you who can quickly learn new skills will be more valuable than people who have very old skills but can't learn new ones. Because market demand will change a lot. Because maybe you don't feel it too much right now. But as someone who has

15:17 many friends who are entrepreneurs worth trillions, this is a very important skill that you must learn. namely the skill to learn any skill as quickly as possible. So, what do you think? Are you still skeptical that 20 hours can produce the skills you want to reach a level that can help you in your career, work, or business? In my opinion, it's just a mindset problem. The question is not whether you believe it or not. What I really want to ask you is what skills will you be learning over the next 20 hours and how will you break them down? Let's see in the comments column. Are there those who really follow through and can commit to it until they reach the point where they can use that skill for their career and work? See you guys in the next video. Bye-bye.
