There’s just too many things I’d want to learn, but I probably can’t do everything at once. And I also don’t know where to start when it comes to basically any topic.
Courses could absolutely work, but they tend to be paid, so that’s a problem.
How do you approach learning new material, especially if you only know a goal rather than a full/partial path?


I dip my toes into a subject, an overview on wiki or a well made youtube essay as a primer. I try not to get too deep into a topic before I know if I really want to get into it. So the primer on the topic sometimes satisfies my curiosity enough and other times it just whets my appetite for more.
