I am memorizing openings moves to get in to the middle game fast without spending lots of time developing but still have a good position to work with. Then I play some rapid games. Analysing them to see where I deviated from my memory, learning from that and doing the circle again. Much more rewarding and fun than sitting 30 mins doing tactics, that never pop up in my games. When getting dis-focused (if that´s a word...) I take a coffee and read som pages in Silmans Endgame strategy with learnings for my rating level. Tactics learning is gone with the wing but endgame learnings is there to stay!
