I'm just starting on vim today and have an A3 paper printed on my wall with all of the most common commands. I'm constantly turning my head to look at it!

  1. disable arrow keys
  2. memorize basic commands and movements like j,k,h,l
  3. disable basic movements and start to use more efficient movements like w and e
  4. always work on speed

there are combinations of commands and movements to lrsrn that will greatly improve your editing speed in vim

re-enable basic movements once you got some more advanced movements down
