Learning math is hard. Those that have braved some of its depths, what did you discover that allowed you to go deeper?
This is a place to share insights, methods, and tips for learning mathematics effectively, as well as resources that contain this information.
I disagree, but not very strongly.
If you find yourself interested in a topic, focus on that topic. Your interest and motivation is more important than being well-rounded or comprehensive.
Most people who are interested in math for itself already know enough that they aren't going to be too interested in this sort of post. For the majority who learn math for other ends, engineering, computer science, physics, etc, browsing will help them orient themselves, and to find out what interrelationships there are between different fields and techniques. And what they are missing when they discover they need background that they don't have for a book they are working through.
