If you have just two hours a week to do math, don’t cram it all into one single Saturday session.

Four half-hour sessions spread out throughout the week, that’s gonna get you a lot further even though it’s the same amount of time.

One of the most important elements of your habit structure is that you can keep doing it consistently.

And it’s a lot easier to fall off the wagon with something you only do once a week as opposed to every other day.

The quality of your practice is gonna be way better if you’re full-assing it for half an hour every other day instead of dragging yourself through this multi-hour marathon every weekend.

This teaser is distilled from the following post, if you want to dive deeper: Study Sessions Should be Short and Frequent as Opposed to Long and Sparse .
