Okay, first of all, I would like to talk about a skill that took me a long time to learn. It was about one year ago when I started to study and train for an exam that I will take this year. My goal was to recognize and memorize the information I learned. It was very hard; it was difficult for me to memorize things. I always learned something, but after one day, I would forget the information I learned the day before. I watched many videos, and one of them was about the Pomodoro Technique. With this technique, you study for 20 minutes, then take a five-minute break, and then continue with another 20 minutes of study followed by a break. After I started using this method, I realized that I began to memorize the information I learned, and I was very happy about that. Looking back, I learned that you must find techniques that will help you achieve your goals. That's all.
