Programming - Stick to a specific set of tools YOU are comfortable with. Don't go with the newest fad. What matters are your skills and concepts. Not what tool you use. A skilled craftsman can use very basic tools to build impeccable creations while a naive one with the latest fancy tools can create junk. So don't jump editors, just learn the one you are comfortable with and do is in much depth. Math - Don't look for the golden trick. Just solve more and more problems and you will eventually get good at recognizing patterns.

The programming advice is good for productivity, but learning new things is fun too, and sometimes it becomes the best option afterwards. To add (personally), don't use new fads in a production setting or when productivity is critical, but if it's for fun or exploration, I think it's all good. I use vim (mediocre with) for my side projects, but VS Code (proficient with) at work, for example.
