For a good start, you only need to learn two things:

2. Learn - review the material that you want to remember (keyboard: Ctrl+L)

You can now start learning with SuperMemo. Initially you may doubt the power of SuperMemo. Trust it for 1-2 weeks and you will begin to understand it better. Add at least 50-100 questions-answer pairs related to your job, your life, or your interests. See how SuperMemo schedules the material for review. Important! Learn will only ask you to review your material after a few days. For that reason, spend your first days on adding new material for learning.
