Get into a rut early: Do the same process the same way. Accumulate idioms. Standardize. The only difference(!) between Shakespeare and you was the size of his idiom list - not the size of his vocabulary.
The more you learn, the more you know. The more you know, the more you forget. The more you forget, the less you know. So why bother to learn?
