What i learned:More haste ,less speed
Have you achieved any good result with your method?
How long have you been using it?
Anyway, I don't think that will be very useful. You should choose a few words among those you would use more frequently and focus on them. Learning words that you'll never use adds nothing to your vocabulary.
