<h1>The process of learning</h1>
<p>There are some techniques that can be used to learn things efficiently and that can help in your daily activities (for me software development). It can be a combination of the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>learn broadly to be able to have different techniques (as a french expression says it well "Avoir plusieurs cordes à son arc") and to know which technique to apply for a given context.</li>
<li>have a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_list">frequency list</a> to learn the core concepts. Deep dive into the core concepts that come up more frequently.</li>
<li>explain in simple non technical words the concepts as though it's been explained to a child (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_by_teaching#Plastic_platypus_learning">Feynman technique</a>).</li>
<li>use <a href="https://francescocirillo.com/pages/pomodoro-technique">pomodoro technique</a> to help get into a focused/diffuse mode.</li>
<li>focus on what matters to your daily activities and do not get distracted by the wealth of information available. If it's important/relevant it will come back.</li>
<li>use <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaced_repetition">spaced repetition</a> so that the concepts stick.</li>
</ul>
