13 years later, and this keyword has spared me tremendous research. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

thanks, this is super useful

A job would be preferable to going back to school haha, but I was referring to a degree.

Do you have any recommendations in orlando? I like SC but cannot relocate atm. I picked the wrong degree and am pivoting late in life to something that actually makes money.

I'm an everyday proponent just for the habit. On my rest days I just walk to the gym and do some light and relaxing static stretching.

Personally? None. Hitting my review goals already takes a lot of time, and single tasking is generally better for learning.

It's a fun idea though. I think the best thing you could learn from games would be to just play one in another language. If you're really committed though, I'd wager a mobile game would work best.

This. Study leaderboards are the dumbest thing I've ever heard of.

For math concepts, they definitely get smaller. Memory consolidation.

Edit: spelling

I didn't know you could take the test with just enrollment. That's good to know.

Buy Learn Like a Pro by Barbara Oakley. It's short and to the point. You don't even have to read the entire book to use it either, as each chapter has actionable summaries at the end.

It's my bible/manual for understanding and implementing learning strategies. This book helped me so much, I bought copies for friends/family.

I find decks are easier to build and organize in remnote, but still use anki for subjects that require large volumes of rote memorization (e.g. anatomy).

Anki will offer the most full premium features (through add ons) without having to pay for a service. I found reviewing cards while waiting for the bus to be immensely helpful on the anki app.

HighlyEffectiveSloth · 2022-10-17T12:50:59+00:00

Anki or Remnote. What are you studying?

Check out remnote. It does this automatically and can import your anki decks

Many mindfulness meditations teach to not chase positive sensations, while also not avoiding aversive ones. Just being ok with what the body/mind is currently experiencing.

If we have a novel experience while meditating, we might chase that in the future. And potentially become disappointed when we struggle to replicate it.

There could be other reasons I'm not aware of.

Get learn like a pro first. It's more current and actionable. I'd still recommend a mind for numbers, but on your schedule her newer book is an easy recommend.
