Gabriel Arazas 2a4f9170bc Add notes on skill-building and note-taking 
Some more notes on them, though it's becoming more broad with the
perspectives this time. There is a backlog of them more, I just need to
process them this morning (or evening). This will eventually diverge
into more concrete skills now.

Start with wishful thinking

In other words, start with the end result. This is the core of prototyping, starting with the end product and getting there no matter how badly implemented.

  • In programming, we usually call this abstractions where we don't need to worry about the implementation details and whatnot. Some would even take one more step by starting with the user-oriented documentation or unit tests.
  • In learning, we could start with our end-goal. This is quite similar to Thomas Frank's impossible list that we explicitly say what we want to do. We could apply the principle what we want to do when we learn a skill.

This is like the practice to Refer to advanced resources when skill-building for a solid short-term goal, only the examples are created yourself. It also allows to make iterations with a Start small and improve later-kind of workflow.

However, focusing too much on the destination can block your progress from having a clear sight on how to get there. We can Create roadmaps to stay on track and establish milestones.
