Practice, practice, practice. The ORA book will help.

I have not watched it, but knowing what a brilliant speaker Damian Conway is, you’ll probably learn a ton and have a blast watching his Mastering Vim video.

Good article! I learned Vim earlier this year by using the plan outlined [here](https://medium.com/actualize-network/how-to-learn-vim-a-four...). It focuses on learning things "the Vim way", and is the reason I succeeded when trying to learn this time (I've tried before and failed).
