The key to building a strong foundation in learning is to focus on high-quality, foundational knowledge, particularly in subjects that are widely accepted, such as mathematics, hard sciences, and microeconomics. These areas provide solid ground because their truths are less contested. The author recommends prioritizing fundamental concepts, like arithmetic and geometry, over more advanced topics. Additionally, it's advised to read original works and classics in any field. For example, in evolution, start with Charles Darwin rather than modern interpretations. Similarly, for economics, begin with foundational thinkers like Adam Smith and Hayek. By establishing this strong foundation, you can confidently explore new ideas and adapt to societal changes, ensuring continuous learning and financial opportunity.

In my view, the true winners are those who completely step away from the game—they don't participate at all and instead rise above it. These individuals possess such deep mental strength, self-control, and self-awareness that they don't need anything from others. I know a few people like this. Jerzy Gregorek, for example, is someone I consider successful because he’s at peace, healthy, and his mental state remains unaffected by whether he earns more or less than others. Historically, figures like Buddha or Krishnamurti, whose writings I admire, embody this idea of success by opting out of the game altogether—winning or losing doesn't concern them.
There’s a quote from Blaise Pascal I came across that resonates with this: "All of man’s troubles arise because he cannot sit quietly in a room by himself." If you can simply sit for thirty minutes and feel content, you’ve reached true success. It’s a powerful mindset, though few ever achieve it.

These 5 mistakes stop people from reaching a Band 7.
Can you see any of these in your writing?
1. Not paraphrasing the task statement
Rephrase the task question in your own words to demonstrate that you’ve understood it. Using synonyms and changing the sentence structure helps. For example, if the task says, "Some people believe that too much money is spent on protecting animals and their habitats. To what extent do you agree?" you could paraphrase it as " Many argue that wildlife protection is too costly".
2. Not answering all parts of the question
The task often has multiple parts—make sure you address each one clearly. If you miss a part, you’ll lose marks for task response. For example, if the question asks about both the advantages and disadvantages of a topic, make sure you discuss both. Ignoring one part could cost you points.
3. Not starting every paragraph with a topic sentence
A topic sentence sets the tone for the paragraph and keeps it focused. Without it, your writing may lack direction. For example, if your paragraph is about the benefits of exercise, your topic sentence could be: "One major advantage of regular exercise is its positive impact on physical health." This makes it clear what the paragraph will focus on.
4. Listing too many ideas, but not developing them
Instead of throwing out a bunch of ideas without much detail, practice in writing about two key points per paragraph, and back them up with explanations and examples. This adds depth to your argument.
5. Writing paragraphs that are too long or too short
Some students write huge paragraphs because they try to cram in too much information without breaking it up. Others just randomly divide their essay into very short ones because they don’t understand the purpose of paragraphing. Find a balance - each paragraph should focus on one main point with enough detail to explain it clearly
