Full-course lesson VIII — Shortcuts

Preview

Keyboard shortcuts are not mainly about "speed." They are about protecting flow, which is also the aim of the Focus lesson. Every time you leave the keyboard to aim for an icon, hunt for a button, or rearrange a window with the mouse, you pay a small attention tax.

So the goal of this module is not to make you memorize 200 combinations. The goal is to internalize a few control cores that materially change the way you operate Windows, the browser, Gmail, YouTube, and Notion.

A printable reference, or keep it in view. For Gmail, enable shortcuts first (see section 3).
