Short and useful reads on chords, progressions, practicing, and getting started at the piano. No long winded theory dumps, just the stuff I wish someone had told me earlier.
Why the bar I nailed ten times in a row kept falling apart, and what I do instead.
Short sessions, real breaks, spaced repetitions and a lot of variety. What I kept from the book.

What I would tell my past self about the first three months. Spoiler, it is not gamme drills.
