How to Choose & Use Videos to Actually Learn Something
-
Pick your goal: What’s the skill you want (coding, drawing, speaking a language, productivity)? Then pick a channel whose focus aligns.
-
Start with the “how”: Videos like the Dr Justin Sung one above help you learn how to learn new skills (so you’re better prepared).
-
Set a schedule: Treat it like a class. Watch + practice the same day.
-
Practice actively: Don’t just passively watch. Pause, try the exercise, apply what you’re learning.
-
Review & reflect: What worked? What didn’t? Adjust your approach.
-
Stay consistent: Skills build gradually.
