Ask HN: Do you hoard online courses and tutorials?

3 pointsby vanilla-almondvor 6 Jahren1 comments

I have more courses bookmarked or bought than I have actually watched. Some I have started, but never finished (either from boredom or my own impatience). Many others (the majority) haven't even been started. The sheer number of courses only adds to the anxiety of wanting to complete them. Or maybe I'm suffering the common afflication knows as 'stuck in tutorial hell'?

Are you in a similar situation? How did you overcome it?

What helped me is measuring my "success" by how much I've learned and not by finishing a certain course. I might watch 2 lectures from a course and learn 80% of the things I needed to learn for a specific project, I don't feel bad about not finishing watching. At least I try to :)
