To me three things are essential:
1 - Use initial motivation to create good habits, because motivation eventually goes away
2 - Take notes, in my case a personal wiki, so I revisit content easily
3 - Try as much as possible to revisit the content, because our memory takes recurrence into account.
When I learn something new I write about it in an article that I can use for reference in the future. I also turn what I learn into content that I share on social media.
