Expert resources are often very specific so you'll have a solid idea what you can do.
This is more helpful if you already have a rough idea as you'll be forming more concrete tasks by the time you refer to them.
For example...

- When starting out to 3D modelling, you can look for speedsculpting videos or a competition that involves many talented people in the industry.
- In roam:Programming, you could look for devlogs, highly advanced competitions, fairly popular software projects, or a live coding session.
- In [[id:cd7e8120-6953-44a6-9004-111f86ac52dc][Illustration]], you can look for speedpainting, competitions, and art contests that can be found online.

You can then store the expert resources and [[id:66337935-420c-40e6-81a6-f74ab0965ed5][Maintain your own digital library]] for future references.

The purpose of this is twofold: to serve as a solid short-term goal (as indicated by the title) and to create inspirations for your future projects.
If you [[id:fdf9e3eb-02c5-47a6-b586-e71a5c92d01a][Look for live sessions as another form of examples]], the inspirations are especially great as you watch the actual process unfold.

Of course, this does not entirely replace looking out for beginner-friendly resources and communities as an entryway.
In fact, it is a bad idea to consider [[id:48cef2ac-a941-463d-a07f-6be8349456ad][Diving head-first into a difficult problem makes a bad start]].

Update the files for convention Apparently, the convention (at least starting from 2018) is to make the keywords and block names to be in lowercase as stated from one of the following discussions at https://orgmode.org/list/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/. The files was updated with a one liner of shell. However, this is Emacs and org-mode does have an API to let you do stuff in your config and interact with the documents internally so it is not an elegant solution in any way. 2021-04-01 16:08:15 +00:00			`#+title: Refer to advanced resources when skill-building for a solid short-term goal`

Improve notes on learning and creativity I simply moved some sections around and put them that are more appropriate and improved formatting on some parts. 2021-07-08 23:43:11 +00:00			`#+date_modified: "2021-07-09 07:41:01 +08:00"`

Create entries on potential traps on learning Ehh... Why I didn't think of those things but here we are. They are going to stay for a little while. Also, there's a slight shift in how I want use my wiki now. Instead of trying to craft every note into a set of evergreen notes. While Andy Matuschak's notes are very practical, it also focuses too much on crafting evergreen notes (a bit too much). Or maybe that was just my impression? Either way, I'll let some of my thoughts to drift if it able to link somewhere in the notes. I think I'm getting the point of Luhmann's original use of Zettelkasten as a research partner. 2021-05-20 13:58:54 +00:00			`If you [[id:fdf9e3eb-02c5-47a6-b586-e71a5c92d01a][Look for live sessions as another form of examples]], the inspirations are especially great as you watch the actual process unfold.`

Make revisions on the skill-related notes In this case, it's mostly about the additional perspectives on how learning works from the act of managing your information through various note-taking methods. I also restructured the note on org-babel and moved as its own note on the hierarchical notebook. I think summarizing a tool and giving my own comments about it is a nicer way of describing it. Plus, I can freely link between any other types of note so I figured it would be better. That said, I should be picky on how to make org-roam entries. And also org-roam v2 is better, after all. :) 2021-05-19 16:13:41 +00:00			`Of course, this does not entirely replace looking out for beginner-friendly resources and communities as an entryway.`
