1. The two fundamental models.
Focused Model : This model is about learning related concepts together as a whole, in a chunk.
Diffuse Model : This model exercises on connecting general ideas across different areas. Example : We use this model unintentionally when daydreaming.

2. Repetitive learning, with a space.
Example : Learn a concept and review it after 8-10 hours later. Come back to the same concept the next day and recheck after 3-4 days, then a week.
Do this until as you're instinctively able to recollect what you've consumed.

3. Sleep enough.
What we learn in a day is mostly short-termed and we intend to forget it after a day. Sleep helps whatever we've learnt in short term to move to long-term storage. Once that's done, your brain automatically decides what to keep and what to forget.

4. Top down and bottom down learning.
Top down learning is trying to understand the big picture first and get an overall understanding on the concept.
Bottom down learning is basically splitting up the concept into multiple small pieces and storing them in a repository.

5. Sufficient breaks.
It's very much likely we get stuck in the process of learning and it's very much necessary to take breaks in between for a day and completely isolate from what you've been doing. Come back fresh next day and think / learn from a different perspective.
