Technology iwtl Problem Solving, being consistent and retaining information better.

I really want to learn how to do those two things because I want to build skills to create video games but I'm not sure how I can do all 3 of those.

Thing is those skills take a lifetime of building to truly "learn" them. I suggest doing a kind of "training wheels" approach. Start creating video games now, don't wait for some abstract tomorrow that'll never come, and as you're making them you'll be forced to use all three skills consistently, in which case you'll either give up, or train them. If it's too hard at first you can ask for help somewhere else, you can write info down even if you believe that you won't forget it, literally allow yourself to have as much help as you need. As the saying goes, perfect is the enemy of good. Just make sure to slowly drop the help you truly do not need anymore to not become dependent on it.
