Someone in this community said, it takes 21 days to learn JS? isn't it stupid? share your thoughts.

Question

It's been 1 month and 15 days for me, I often forget to use methods, property names, use of THIS. now my question is, Am I doing something wrong?

how people exactly learn js? I mean if I learn each element, each object of it to perfection, i will still forget them if I don't use them for the next 7-8 days.

Should I just learn and see and keep things remembered that ohhh this function is there ok. and I move on, complete the whole course and then actual learning will take place when I make a project?????

so my question is, should I do this fast learning phase where I can remember the method names, their usage etc. and move on complete the course. or should I just take it very slow, keep each small details in mind and remember them. and move on very slow.

Answer 1

stupid answer given to stupid question... that's a kind of logic ^^

real learning occurs by practicing, course learning only offer a guided way to discover and practice ;P

Answer 2

Js is not a language, it's a carrier... one can spend life there.
