Thanks for all of the responses, and thanks especially for the several
of which were helpful and related to my original question :)
I've had a good couple of weeks to try things out since my original
posting, and I thought I would just amend my original post with a
solution that I've found to be helpful, something I call "Unit Testing
the Brain" [1]: basically, I've created a text file where I put
structured questions that help me practice new techniques as I
encounter them in my day-to-day work. Having this text file keeps all
of my "tricks" together so that I can practice them on a daily basis.
Regards,
Duane Johnson
