Try a Pomodoro timer. Theres an app for Mac called Session. Also quickly review the shit you did in your last session by skimming over it. |

@Benrockiee I learned this strategy from a very professional coding teacher. Dr. Angela Yu What she suggested, is that when you watch tutorials, do not try to code along, just focus on what the instructor is saying and you do not need to memorize things, you just have to understand. When you do these things on daily basis in the future, they will automatically be memorized. After watching the tutorial try to do all the stuff that you learned from the tutorial and when you get stuck try to rewind the tutorial at that part and watch again. This way you will actually learn how things are working. Is that enough? NO The learning comes with practice, try to create more similar projects that you learned (this time without rewinding tutorials). And do not focus on finishing the video/course as soon as possible. The purpose is learning things not completing tutorials. So focus on that. |

Iam at 11:00:00. I follow the breaks every hours or so. I do take about an average of 2 hours for each half hour sometimes longer when I tinker and add , debug....looking forward to finishing. It's an incredible amount of info. I do find it helpful it's a video I can rewind to go over stuff it's easy to get distracted and miss a line or edit .. good luck ! |

Great suggestion! I have been thinking it would be nice to have a text to follow along with the video, am I the only one? |
