Fast "dirty" learner here. Usually, an unknown subject for me consists of branches and of course those branches consist of more branches. Like a tree.
When the majority of those branches are unknown too, I tend to learn fast but dirty, meaning that I still have big questions on my head that I put aside and continue with the most obvious and confident path at the time.
On the other hand, when the majority of those branches are known or I have been exploring them in the past, the solution tends to come more naturally.
Have you ever had a moment where you were looking for an answer and suddenly remembered an article you where reading a few months ago but you couldn't exactly "get" it. And then, when you had all the pieces, suddenly you had the "aha!" moment.
And no, when you will be confident of your self, it won't really matter. Till then, continue down the path of curiosity.
I do the same here _, but i also want to mention the repetition in cs concepts, while i build the branches i make a mnemonic based on previous knowledge that comes intuitive and is relatable. I also think in images constantly so the mnemonics tend to associate to the tree relative branch distribution in space, and sometimes colours, like, more mathematical conceps are blue, rapid changing or granular elements are more orange, etc, so que concatenation of the colours and distance creates a more unique identifier for the concept _^

That is greatest post I have read today.
Thank you for sharing.
