Escape tutorial hell. Learn by doing after a tutorial, turn YouTube tutorials into actionable tasks.

[Fazerlane @Fazerlane]

So what do we do?
We force you to actually do something with what you've just learnt from that YouTube tutorial.
Why?
Because that's the only way it sticks.

Don't just watch tutorials, that's not how to learn
You watch tutorials and then do separate projects with what you've learned from those tutorials, that's how you actually learn.

You will win. Just keep building!

@GithubProjects That's the spirit!

How can you avoid procrastinating by "learning more"?
By doing more. Stay with me.

At every checkpoint in a course, book, lecture series, ask yourself what can I build/ what project can I work on that SLIGHTLY HIGHER difficulty than my current skill level and go work on them.

That makes sure you actually experience real problems all those materials don't teach, and you learn how to fix the problems and you also get to apply what you've learnt so it sticks better.

That's the only way to actually make real progress and not just feel like you're progressing.

You can't learn how to start a restaurant by only studying materials, materials help a lot but starting a restaurant teaches you a lot more

To develop the world, build.

To understand the world, read.
To understand yourself, write.

@Gamingtronium Just build the lowest user testable version (MVP) and ship as fast as possible.

@xoaanya The 4th tip is the exact reason we are here today!
We help people build after learning

They should avoid ever consuming courses without building anything.
Why?
They may understand the theory, but in the real world, that alone has little value. Nobody is ever paid to recite theoretical knowledge every morning, they expect you to apply it. You might think that's what teachers are paid to do but even teachers need practical experience to be effective. If someone taught you to cram knowledge in your head and someone else taught you by showing you what to do and how to do it, which would be more effective? Exactly.
Real learning happens through execution. Build projects. Test ideas. Break things, fix things. That’s how skills become useful.

For anything truly worth pursuing, even the ones driven by passion, there will be days when there's no motivation at all. It's normal, but those are exactly the days that matter most. Stopping on low-motivation days trains inconsistency and premature quitting on your ambitions. Showing up anyway builds momentum.
Motivation is rarely the starting point, it’s usually the byproduct of action. Once you begin, even reluctantly, something shifts. Focus kicks in, resistance fades, and before long, stopping becomes harder than continuing.
So the next time you don't feel like doing anything, just start regardless, and you'd notice that continuing isn't as hard as starting.

What's one moment you didn't feel like working but did anyway, and once you started, you felt like you'd never stop?

[Fazerlane @Fazerlane]

@justinskycak In both instances, it looks like it's not working until you suddenly start to see progress
Don't stop learning, even when it's hard.

@lilacmwesh We created Fazerlane, a website that takes YouTube tutorials and gives you actionable challenges to do based on the tutorial, which makes sure you actually learn from practicing, not just watching. Check it out: https://t.co/mdZUXby2Sk
That's our work :)

@Thebiglade Skills... They can get you the money back

[Fazerlane @Fazerlane]

Working on actual projects is the best way to learn, as they say, "experience is the best teacher".

And of course, you need to watch tutorials, read books, and documentations whenever you get stuck, you can't practice what you don't understand, but there is no real learning without practice, that's what makes sure it sticks

@OmriBuilds Just learn how to learn effectively
You'd be able to learn anything else after

@official_Gegeh Learning is the greatest skill any man can have.

"Good studying feels harder than bad studying. Easy reading feels nice but dissapears fast"
Adam and Eve's judgement has made it clear that nothing good in this life comes easy, even just living through life as each day comes isn't easy
You just have to choose the 'hard path' you want

[Fazerlane @Fazerlane]

Constantly practicing after each tutorial video is what guarantees learning more. That way, you'd learn what even the tutorial didn't teach because you'd encounter real issues, not the ones made up for the tutorial.

So next time you're learning something, remember, practice a thousand times until it sticks; that's how you learn.

[Fazerlane @Fazerlane]

Watching more videos does not mean learning more
