The key to learning fast is reducing friction in the learning process.

One of the biggest sources of friction:

Not knowing the prerequisites for the thing you’re trying to learn.

Knowing the prereqs can make the difference between feeling like new content is being presented overwhelmingly fast vs at a comfortable pace.

Another big source of friction:

Not periodically reviewing things you’ve previously learned.

If you don’t review, then you forget, and if you forget prereqs, then there you are back at the first source of friction.
