What is the best way to learn?

Is it best if I just grind out a month or so of 3-5 hours a day and try to give myself a super crash course on Java. Or should I just do an hour or so every day? What do you guys think is the best way to learn?

free course.

To sum up, you have to vary focused learning with diffuse learning. 20 to 30 minutes then a break doing something physical or something relaxing (that's the diffuse part, where your subconscious 'orders' everything)

There's way more to it, but testing and challenging yourself is a part of it. it's better to do a bit each day and then test your knowledge... rather than cram

Interesting, I will have to try that! Thank you.
