🧠 Logic

Logic is like the superhero of thinking skills.

It gives you the power to think critically, argue persuasively and avoid common thinking traps.

Plus, it’s literally the number one thing that makes someone good at communicating ideas imo

Brilliant’s two logic courses are very fun and contain a ton of visuals, animation and games to make the ideas super accessible.

They were genuinely pretty tough at times, but I definitely learnt a lot and highly recommend them! pic.twitter.com/2E0gbccWYT

🤖 Artificial Intelligence

Knowing about AI is important because it's quickly becoming this huge part of our lives

And because AI can be trained to be more accurate than humans at a bunch of tasks it’s going to be an important tool in almost every industry

Other than messing around on ChatGPT, I literally knew nothing about AI until I binged the Artificial Neural Networks course on Brilliant - it’s honestly a goldmine of great information about how it all works. pic.twitter.com/vOx9T9Kms4

📊 Data Analysis

If you’re looking to become a Creatorpreneur in 2023 (i.e. think about and manage your creative side-hustle like a business), understanding your data / analytics is an essential way to level up literally everything you’re doing 🚀

This is why I highly recommend Brilliant’s Data Analysis Fundamentals course because it gives you a pretty decent overview of the basics of working with data and how to interpret it :) pic.twitter.com/vjgdJWHxXs

💻 Programming

Knowing how to code is great for two reasons:

1. It opens up possibilities for business ideas in your mind, by helping you to notice how problem in day-to-day life can be solve using tech, and
2. It helps you execute your ideas much faster than anyone else

I’ve always been pretty good at coding ever since learning how to build websites to make some cash at school.

But, Brilliant has helped me keep that knowledge fresh for whenever I want to tweak the website or test new ideas

I love the ‘Programming with Python’ course btw :) pic.twitter.com/5mpH2dOGqb

🤔 Problem Solving

Everything we do involves solving problems - whether it’s at work, in relationships or just navigating life. So, having a good mental model of how to solve problems is such an important skill if we want to achieve some level of success and happiness.

Luckily, Brilliant have a great course on this too!

There’s a bunch of fun problems and interactive puzzles to work through including a great set of matchstick problems for those who enjoy the mathematical side of problem solving too ;)
