Simple Goal: Start by collecting basic information about the new topic and gradually expand your knowledge over time.
Make a Plan: Create a brief plan that covers just the basics to get started.
Fun Fact: Everyone's got the hang of this, but the real deal comes with persistence and consistency.
Practice Regularly: A bit of daily practice will help you think about the new skill in a whole new way.
Follow the 80/20 Rule: Figure out the most important parts of the skill that will give you 80% of the results and focus on mastering those first. It helps you prioritize your efforts.
Get Feedback: Ask for feedback from mentors, peers, or online communities. Constructive feedback gives you insights into areas where you can improve.

Let's address all of these one by one:
What is the roadmap to learn anything new and master it step by step?
Ans. Every concept can be divided in two parts: Core and Application. Focus on core first, learn bare minimum then apply, then move to next step.
E.g: You learn basics of color theory. When you learn Red and Yellow made orange. Try to mix colors by yourself and verify the outcome.
How to constantly keep learning and make oneself productive?
Ans. Never let the streak broken, learn for at least 5 min a day even if you are superbusy, in an emergency. You have revise the topic in 5m focused slot as well. Human mind is weird machine, it likes to forgot things. Never take your memory for granted. This is only secret I follow to keep learning continously.
To stay or be productive, only one key principle, stay accountable.
How to learn important and necessary elements and not waste time on unnecessary things?
Ans. Follow domain experts, follow their research, books and find out bare minimum required for a topic. Then moved to practice. Always maintain a balance between theory and practice.
To avoid time waste on unnecessary things start spend time on necessary things.
You have to sacrifice something to gain something.
Practice deep work and keep putting efforts.
At EOD, Hardwork with well defined structured path surpassed the Smart Work.
