1️⃣ On too much focus on consuming information...

This is a common question that I'm always suspicious of:

"What Python book should I read next?"

Our brains learn through repeated information retrieval attempts, not through information consumption.

That could mean quizzing, explaining a concept, or performing an action.

This involves our brain attempting something it can't quite do yet, which can feel VERY challenging, but minute-by-minute it's usually MUCH more productive than re-reading.
