For me this works best regardless of the field

1. Learn basics
2. then do this for rest of your carrier

                             
     ,.-> Learn more .,      
   .`                  `'    
  '                      \   
 |                        |  
  .                      /   
   ',                  ,-    
     `'' Practise   <-'`     

Basically learn bit more -> use it immediately in any project - > rinse and repeat.
