Learning the Shortcuts: Lessons Learned from Games

This is the second in a series on "life lessons" I learned while playing Diablo 2 Resurrected. It's really just a simple one: learn the shortcuts. Learn the things that make everything you do just a little easier.

For example, if you have to type at work, learn to type. If you have to consult Stack Overflow every time you need to sort a javascript array, just take the time to learn the function. 

These things make everything just that much easier to do.

Not learning to type and wanting to write a book makes writing that much more difficult.

This is a bit of a stretch to say it's a lesson, since it's so obvious. But, I learned something from it, since I know that in my life I would often take the attitude of "I'll handle it when I get there" even though I'm always there.

It's just a matter of optimizing whenever and wherever possible.
