I've learned to work in multiple industries and verticals and transferring what I know that can.
Generally, there's no hack around learning, other than learning more efficiently. The faster you dive in, the sooner you'll have a sense of what you know (more than you think) and where to actually focus in the next 3-6-9-12 months.
There is a course called learning how to learn that focuses on how adults learn differently that's worth checking out before going into fintech or other topics. Highly recommend checking it out as a first stop.
Fintech is a broad and vague category, not specific.
In this case if it's new to you, focus on first principles learning whether it's in finance, banking.
If you can saturate your time, consciousness with meaning full content, there is a good amount of passive spaced repetition from hearing different explanations of concepts. Podcasts can be helpful, but for learning you will probably find some things on youtube to subscribe to and work through. Have a playlist ready to go, whether it's in your ears, or on a speaker while getting ready in the mornings.
First principles learning means learning the basics and using that to build up to the other concepts. Luckily it also can mean learn it like you're 5 and don't expect to learn it as quickly as something that is partially familiar or similar. When you do this, your brain will point out what's familiar or similar anyways.
What's nice is if you're not great at math, there's still a lot of people and process interactions that can have value added too. The math can be learned too.
