Learning other technologies/trends while studying towards a goal(CCIE)

As many of you probably already know , studying for certification such as the CCIE is no joke when it comes to time management. Its not uncommon to see people putting 20-30 hours worth of study time a week towards the cert. I'm soon heading down this track as well since i want a deep understanding of how all the core network protocols work and also obtain that number.. That being said, i realize networking isn't just routing and switching anymore. There's a lot of other technologies that have or are becoming a requirement for a network engineer to know in order to stay competitive in this field such as AWS,NGFW,Load balancers,Python,and SDN.

My question is , how do you learn all these other technologies while also studying for difficult goal such as the CCIE? Should i put those other things on pause? Or should i stop studying for my CCIE and learn those other technologies first? Maybe i should try learning them all once?
