If you liked Elements of Poker, I'd suggest reading The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin. Though it's not directly related to poker, it talks a little about his progression through his chess and Tai Chi Chuan careers but most of the discussion of learning isn't in terms of any particular discipline.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
