Important Concepts

One of my long-term goals is to create a codex of important concepts that, when properly introduced to a young mind, helps produce achievement as a byproduct of understanding the core principles. For example, "leverage" is an important concept to know in a mechanical sense. "Ratio" is another important concept from mathematics. I believe there's a core set of principles like this that could really be helpful.

I'm going to keep track of some links to off-site resources that I think are useful.

Personal Productivity

• Henrik Edberg wrote this list of 16 things he wish he'd been taught, and it's an excellent list. I agree with just about all of them.

• There was that book by that southern school teacher on excellence in schools, teaching a bunch of principles. I have 2 copies of the book and can't find it! Gah!
