Whether it's a form of note-taking or regular repetition or the like, what are some self-education techniques and tools you've developed to help yourself learn on your own?

When you feel like head is bloated or you start being easily distracted, take a break and do something to ease yourself. I usually play a game for 30 minutes or something.

Some days it just doesn't work and then you gotta give it a break. Forcing knowledge onto yourself does not work long term in my opinion.

What I also find handy: Take a walk and think about what you've learned.
