Head First Design Patterns

September 19th, 2011 § Leave a Comment

I’m getting started with the Head First Design Patterns as part of a book club at work. I’ve skimmed through the book once before, but would like to get more out of it, hence my decision to join the book club. Below are tips, verbatim, to follow in order to get the most out of the book:

  1. Slow down. The more you understand, the less you have to memorize.
  2. Do the exercises. Write your own notes.
  3. Read the “There are No Dumb Questions”
  4. Make this the last thing you read before bed. Or at least the last challenging thing.
  5. Drink water. Lots of it.
  6. Talk about it. Out loud.
  7. Listen to your brain.
  8. Feel something!
  9. Design something!

AnotherĀ  journey begins…
