Harry McKerihan - About me
Hey everyone! I'm Harry, founder of Bloom Learning. I created Bloom with a goal of sharing the gift of effective learning habits with as many as possible to help create a world where education is accessible and attainable to everyone. A bit about me: - I'm based in Sydney, Australia - I'm a current 1st year student at the University of Sydney, studying a Bachelor of Science (Advanced), doing a double major in neuroscience and physiology (though I'm about to switch out physiology for psychology lol) - My goal is to continue to study a Master's of Education, a PhD in educational psychology and become a global leader in learning science, updating the current education system, which has been unchanged for over 100 years. - I'm also a big sports fan. I've played golf since I could walk, I love working out, and I'm a mad Canberra Raiders fan (Raiders slander will not be tolerated... jk). I also love AFL and Cricket (but only test). - I'm very much looking forward to getting to know all of you! Ik introductions seem rly cringe and often quite daunting, but I promise this is for a reason. If we can work to break down some of the barriers that exist between us, we can develop a really close knit community. Pro tip: After you post your introduction, find a few other people who seem to have similar interests to you (ie similar subjects, similar extracurriculars etc) and introduce yourself personally. Failure to post an introduction, and I will track you down (only half joking...)

🗓️ Weekly plan 7-13 September
Time to sit down and get an idea of what a successful next 7 days would look like. To help feel more in control of your life and like every day you are working towards something larger, a weekly plan is a vital tool. To make sure you are keeping up with your system progression, i want you to divide your weekly plan into two groups: One called "General" which is just your usual weekly plan, and one called "Bloom" which is where you plan what you need to do in order to improve your study system (Follow your progression document as this will give you the tasks that need to be completed) If you are unsure about how to do so, consult the guide i made as well as an exemplar plan that I made (links below) https://www.skool.com/bloom-learning-3643/classroom/39cbaba3?md=0d60a79e2b554a99893bf1f35fc17d8e https://www.skool.com/bloom-learning-3643/weekly-plan-20-27-july?p=020c0a79 No need to overthink this, just simply create a list of the tasks you would like to have ticked off or habits you would have liked to have completed in 7 days time. Make it as specific as possible so that each day when completing your daily plan for the following day, you are able to consult your weekly plan and decide on the tasks you want to tick off that day. Your ultimate goal is to have some metric to compare against at the end of the week to determine if your week was a success.

🗓️ Weekly Review 5 September
I just want everyone to take 10 minutes to truly reflect on the week gone by. Don't just start typing immediately, maybe get up and pace around for a bit to help you deeply think "How did this week truly go, and was there anything else I could have realistically done to make it better?" It would be easy to just say "got some work done, but was a bit distracted so want to work on that for next week" but this isn't training our metacognition skills which we all know is what will allow us to really quickly find the root cause of our issues. A good reflection here will make the weekly plan so much easier tomorrow

Daily Check-In - Friday 4 September
Day [X] 🔥 Today: [Win/Draw/Loss + Justification] Tomorrow: [A 1% improvement to make tomorrow slightly better] Important: The 1% improvement should be something in your system/process rather than just a task. This is so the gain will ideally forever benefit you. Example: Eliminating one source of distraction will provide a benefit for every subsequent day, whereas doing a physics past paper will only help you in the short term. Also feel free to add additional things to your daily check-ins. For example I like posting my habit tracker here to keep myself accountable, you may want to do the same or to post your daily plans to keep you accountable. Remember, always progress over perfection
