Review a set of flashcards for 10 minutes

Ten minutes of spaced repetition beats an hour of passive reading every time.

1.Open Anki, Quizlet, or any flashcard app you use.
2.Run through your due cards without skipping any.
3.Mark honestly — 'hard' or 'again' is fine and actually helps you.
4.After 10 minutes, close the app. Spaced repetition works best in short bursts.

Why it works

Spaced-repetition flashcards are the highest-return-per-minute learning tool that exists. Fifteen minutes a day reliably moves information into long-term memory.

Best for

•A morning commute
•Any micro-break throughout the day

Variations

•Use a proper SRS app (Anki, Mochi) — the algorithm does most of the work.
•Don't create too many cards at once — 5 new cards a day beats 50 new cards you never see again.
