People say you have to "do" math to learn it. Usually they make it sound like you need to do the exercises in the books. I think that doing just that can be boring and demotivating.

I would suggest finding projects that can motivate you and help you exercise your math. Some suggestions of mathy things I regularly work on for fun:

1. Make a video game. If it's a 3d game, you'll have to do your matrices, dot products, trigonometry, etc.

2. shadertoy.com - This is a community site where people just program cool looking graphics for fun. All the code is open, so you can learn from it. Similar to game programming but without the mathless overhead. :)

3. Machine learning projects - I love writing various machine learning things, but the project that has been a great ML playground has been my self driving toy car. It gives me plenty of opportunities to explore many aspects of machine learning and that helps drive my math knowledge. My car repo is here: https://github.com/otaviogood/carputer but a much easier project is donkeycar.com. ML will touch on linear algebra, calculus, probabilities/statistics, etc.

The most important thing for learning is to be inspired and have fun with what you're learning. :)
