Sometimes the question is more important than the answer.

Quote from: Rob Conery. The Imposter's Handbook Kindle Edition.
If we’re going to get anywhere in our careers, we must seek out challenge and, along with it, failure. Failure is growth, growth is learning.

Embrace it.

How to remenber anything forever-ish

I've often heard ( and said ) that to retain skills and knowledge it's a matter of either " use it, or lose it ".

I know from hard earned experience ( 75 odd years and counting ) that this axiom is true.

Some Stuff I 'knew' 10-20 years ago,  and haven't really re-visited , I now need to re-study to be comfortable with using. It's embarrassing to read something interesting posted somewhere and realise that you wrote it, and don't still have the knowledge fresh in your brain. !!

I came across this site today and thought I'd share it [ before I forget ].

added: some of the images are interactive, don't be afraid to have a play :-)

perhaps it will help.

You don't have to use a shoebox for Spaced Repetition, but it's funnier if you do.
