However, we should know or realize our own capabilities and needs as well. What we can and need to do may be different from our expectations. Also, be creative and think outside the box yet without comprising ethics in achieving your purpose. Remember we all have a choice to be a better person.
Learning and proficiency can be accelerated in different ways. Some are trained since young like piano.

Based on the correct logic, we can deduce further and derive applications.
Whichever educational resource one may choose, be it the internet or physical books, it is impertinent that we always filter for those that impart good and wholesome values such as selflessness, honesty, and kindness to our precious younglings and generations beyond.
Good luck and best of successes in all your altruistic endeavors!
