I will probably not sound very sophisticated, but I would say I just dive in. E.g. If I want to learn about some historical period/character, I will just read books over books about it until my brain just naturally adsorb it. If I want to understand CS/nath topics, I will just try to implement what I want to understand until I get it. Is it akin to banging my head against the wall until I break the wall? Yes. Is it the most efficient way? Probably not. Does it work in the end? Yeah.
