Answer 1

ask lots of questions!

Answer 2

The serious answer is that you will not be able to accomplish your goal.    Simply, you cannot read every book in one university library, much less all of the non-redundant books in all of the world's libraries.  Furthermore, you cannot read every peer-reviewed article in every academic journal and understand all of them.

Answer 3

one step at a time.

Research some sort of technology, or chemical that will make you learn better and faster, make millions of dollars, and use it to become smarter.

Answer 4

You cannot and never will.

There are approximately 1 million articles published per year in peer reviewed scientific journals. Then there are the millions more in the arts, history, in all the newspapers and all the books. Even if you knew everything that was known last year, you cannot keep up with the speed of increase.

I doubt if you will even keep up with the increase in size of Wikipedia - just one source. And, even if you read them, will you remember them and understand them?

You say you know two languages and want to learn another. But there are 15 languages with more that 100 million speakers and thousands more with fewer speakers.

Get realistic and apply your talents to one useful and worthwhile field of knowledge.
