i can sit down and study for hours and feel like i understood everything. but then a day or two later i open the same topic and it's like i never studied it at all.

anyone found something that actually made information stick beyond just the day you studied it?

doesn't have to be productivity related, genuinely curious what people would go back and tell themselves

i read articles, watch videos, and go through courses constantly, but when someone asks me what i actually learned lately i draw a blank.

feels like i'm keeping myself busy with the idea of studying without the actual results. like i'm just collecting information instead of building real knowledge.

Did anyone manage to fix this?
