I set aside short, targeted blocks of time for study or practical testing in order to strike a balance between learning new augmented reality technology and meeting deadlines. A project's immediate applicability is ensured by prioritising important aspects. While I have some downtime, I also take advantage of fast resources like webinars, forums, and tutorials, which help me stay up to date on AR developments without slowing down project progress.

Balancing project deadlines with mastering new AR tech requires strategic planning and disciplined multitasking. My approach? I start by prioritizing tasks—deadlines come first, but I carve out small, consistent blocks of time for learning. For instance, I leverage early mornings or breaks for reading up on AR innovations or experimenting with new tools. I also integrate learning into ongoing projects, using them as test beds for new techniques. This not only accelerates my learning, but enhances project outcomes. And, let’s face it, staying current with AR isn’t just a task—it’s an investment in future-proofing my skills.

It’s all about smart hacks—use micro-learning during breaks and let AI-powered tools take on the heavy lifting. Efficiency first, innovation always!
