How do you remember / keep the formulas straight in your head? remember, different, only, although, difficult

I was just wondering how you all keep so many formulas straight in your head.

I've been working on Quantitative Methods and although I've only scratched the surface on the CFA... I'm already I'm having a hard time keeping the various yield formulas straight, and all the different formulas for the various deviations, etc. I know this will only get more difficult as I continue studying and the formulas will mount on top of each other ever more moving forward.

I was hoping someone here could share some insight on how they kept the formulas straight in their heads and not get them all jumbled up.

Thank you!
