Something else that really helps is backchaining.<p>Split the thing you are learning into chunks... making each chunk as small&#x2F;simple&#x2F;easy as you can.<p>Learn the chunks in reverse order. Starting with chunk N, then N-1, all the way to chunk 1. This way, you always start with the hardest part and then move onto the easier (more practiced) parts.<p>This keeps the focus on the part you are trying to learn, and reduces learning stress.
