About 15 years ago I got a job in IT with lots of ssh hops and server work. I approached it the same way I approached the Linux terminal. I made a rule that everything I typed from thereon out would be in Vi.
Recently I did the same with Emacs. I'm a big fan of learning through complete immersion.
My opinion is that my method is horrendously inefficient and arduous. There's a lot of room for deliberate practice.

If you can improve on that method please do.

Ultimately, you can't learn anything without work, but considering how useful tools like Anki have been for me in learning languages, I think there's room for something like that to, as you said, improve on that method :)
