The folks on Twitter has provided a couple of quite though provoking links on the subject of study

I like to think each of us has to find our own way to study, whether it be driven by passion, need or simple curiosity.

My current method is to block out an hour from 8 to 9 pm for serious study. This means avoid distractions – random browsing, tv, tweets, books, arranging DVD’s in alphabetical order and so on – and focusing on one topic.

This, so far, has sort of worked.
