⚙️Drill Cycle Sprint

UltralearningOverachievers · Skill Sprint · 90-Min SprintHard

for the overachiever who wants a repeatable drill cycle for any stuck sub-skill

Goal

Run one 90-min drill cycle: diagnose, isolate, attack, measure, decide.

Source principle

Drill: run the full diagnose-isolate-attack-measure loop on one bottleneck. : from Ultralearning by Scott Young.

The plan

  1. 🔍
    0:00-0:08
    Diagnose: name the one sub-skill bottlenecking the whole skill.
  2. ✂️
    0:08-0:15
    Isolate it. Strip every other part away.
  3. 📊
    0:15-0:20
    Measure pre-performance on one metric. Real number.
  4. 🔁
    0:20-0:35
    Drill rep 1. Full focus. 60-sec rest after.
  5. 🔁
    0:35-0:50
    Drill rep 2. Same drill. Same focus. Rest.
  6. 🔁
    0:50-1:05
    Drill rep 3. Same drill. Same focus. Rest.
  7. 🔁
    1:05-1:18
    Drill rep 4. Push difficulty up. Same focus.
  8. 📊
    1:18-1:23
    Measure post-performance on the SAME metric.
  9. 🪞
    1:23-1:27
    Compare pre vs. post. Did the gap close?
  10. 🤔
    1:27-1:30
    Decide: drill-again tomorrow, or integrate into full skill.
