Online courses aren& #39;t Netflix.

You shouldn& #39;t binge them just to say you got through it.

What knowledge do you retain by doing that?

You might come out with a couple concepts to add to your mental tool belt, but that& #39;s it.

Here is how I learned to code.

Courses are modularized, more often than not.

Go through one section, then practice what you& #39;ve learned.

Repeatedly.

Until you& #39;re sick of the repetition.

Then do it all over again.

When moving on to a new module in your coursework, utilize what you learned from the previous one where applicable.

Constant repetition and application of the course material.

This is how you create new pathways in your brain and enforce what you& #39;ve learned.

All that said, adopt an on/off schedule for your learning.

I stand by the Pomodoro Technique.

This is where you set a timer for your study time, and when that timer runs out, you take a short, but meaningful, break.

Start off small.

45 minutes on/15 minutes off.

That& #39;s it.
