What are your favorite resources for continued learning?

For example are there particular books you have enjoyed, speakers you watch, podcasts you listen to, courses you’ve taken?

I always believe in continuing to learn and develop, and I’d love to get some new resources.

Sort:  

Personally I like to watch Youtube videos to learn new and interesting skills. 

https://www.kaggle.com/learn/overview Kaggle offers all kinds of computer science courses.

https://www.khanacademy.org Khan offers classes on all kinds of subjects

https://alison.com/courses Alison also offers a broad spectrum of classes.

I found this while digging around for resources also. https://www.lifehack.org/articles/money/25-killer-sites-for-free-online-education.html

It depends on what information I want to obtain, but being said to be a computer programmer I always use StackOverflow and Youtube

StackOverFlow really do give informations that I was seeking in the field of programming. Given that it was a community for programmers, most of the questions that I was always seeking end up in the platform. But there were times where my questions was too unique that I can't find an answer to the platform, this is the time when I will try to find informations in 

Youtube Like StackOverflow, youtube was very resourceful also. Let's add the fact that it was in video format that have some step by step process that will help viewers to understand thoroughly.

But despite of these sites I always use the Google Search Engine

This gives all the possible information that  person can obtain.


1. Remind myself of my target or target.

Usually before specifying time for a particular endeavor, we tend to make short-term and long-term goals. If my goals begin to be invisible, I can become less motivated than when I always check how close I am to my goals during the process of reaching the goal. Keeping an eye on targets and checking my progress or progress will make me motivated every day.

2. Make checkpoints every week to monitor my progress.

Everyone needs to see where their progress is in achieving their goals if they want to continue to be motivated. If I see that my position fits the plan even more every time I check my progress, I will feel more motivated and happy because I'm getting closer to the target. If I see that I am experiencing obstacles, maybe that is the encouragement that I need to always not get off track towards the goal.

3. Make sure I give a gift for myself every time I reach my weekly goal.

The prize can be as simple as a bowl of ice cream after a hard workout for a week. What a great gift like going to a spa after hard work. Any gift that will keep me trying to reach the goal is what I have to give myself. Give myself a break or time to rest. Sometimes even the most determined people can be overwhelmed, I might force myself too much,

4. Don't push yourself too hard. Everybody sometimes has a setback.

If I fail to reach this week's goal, don't become too emotional. Let me make it a lesson. Not only the way I achieve the goals that must be considered, but how successful the results are and achieve the main goals.

Google used to be my favourite resources for learning because through google i will have access to many

more resource websites that will help me to add to my

knowledge,another platform that i am impressed with is this platform which is musing.io,this platform is now a

resource of learning for me because i do see alot of contents that educates me about some certain topics

which i never had good knowledge about,some people ask questions that you can learn from and also many

people give answers that adds to my knowledge and act as a tool of learning for me...
