I learn quick when I have a bigger picture to associate things to, so I do learn first the reasons behind why something is made. Then, I dive in to the smaller details (how to use this and that, tips and tricks). Lastly, I try it and readjust myself until I get used to it.

Does it matter? I think what matters more is to keep learning.

For me, it is fulfilling to have myself with sort of a long-term relationship with what I learn. Over time, you stay away with it a bit as you improvise and impose your creative and non-traditional ways of doing it. You made your skill your own and it brings a happy thought.
