You can set a learning plan or goal to keep you on track and help you reach your learning goals.
This can start with setting up your SMART goals. SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time sensitive.
Identify the topic you want to start learning, specify the subject field and level. Check if the topic is measurable or not. Ask yourself is this topic and subject attainable and relevant to you and or your job, finally you have to check if your topic is time sensitive and need to reach your learning goal as soon as possible or it's a future learning goal.
Whatever your learning goal is, you need to know where you should start. Lynda.com courses fall into one of 12 main sections, each area contains a list of topics related to that area, as well as software related to these areas and topics.
