How do you learn?

I recently commented on What are you learning?, but I quickly realized (after the first five characters) that my comment is more about the how than the what.

At times, to learn certain topics can feel as a pretty boring duty. Consequently I chose creative/generative coding (an activity that appeals to me) as booster. I currently adopted a somewhat chaotic, eclectic (broader?) routine.

As part of this routine, and when possible, I often take a working code in some other language to translate it, iteratively "improving" and when possible, learning how original features could be translated too, as Python zip, range functions to ES (vulgo JavaScript).

Not sure how it could work in a medium or long term, so far it is pretty funny and efficient for me.

So, I have to ask now:

How do you learn?

Any suggestion, hint, tip (!) will be very welcome. And good learning to everyone :D
