Summary

You will be more successful if you start by researching your learning plan. You can ask experts or review guides. Shape your environment to focus. Participate in activities that allow you to use the learning in a real or near-real environment. You can learn what you are learning is composed of and learn to drill the parts that provide leverage. As you are applying the learning you are forced to retrieve that information or you are testing your knowledge via other tools. You either seek others to give you specific feedback for improvement, give yourself feedback via tracking, then use that feedback to tweak your learning. To retain what you learn you space learning out over time. You use the Feynman technique to teach others what you know which forces you to confront if there is a gap in your understanding. Finally, you play with variables with what/how you learned something so that it is more interesting and you learn new things about what you are learning.

If you walk away with nothing else:

1. Plan what you are going to learn and how you will learn it.
2. Systematize your learning, What activities will I apply it to, how can I get feedback to improve my performance, Incorporate the ideas into the learning.
3. Experiment to keep it interesting and to stretch yourself.
