Different skills will require a different blend. Learning a new snowboarding trick is going to be far more practice than study, where as learning how to store your bitcoin safely will be almost entirely study.
Study
1. Find the experts (this isn't always the most popular person in the field, but that's where I start)
2. Find books, blog posts, and courses
3. Read, and study them, and take notes while you do of all the important points
4. Transform notes in Anki cards
5. Study anki cards
Practice
1. Figure how the best way to get quick feedback on your skill. (this would be running a cold email campaign, practice the snowboarding trick)
I’ve been teaching myself org-mode and filling other gaps in my elisp knowledge lately and I organically arrived at this. Except I’m doing zettelkasten with org-roam instead of Anki cards.

Usually Study & Practice in parallel
