Hey, firstly all the best for your journey ahead.
I've moved tech sometime back due to multiple factors, but I've a list of things that might help you.
Determine what you're going to use the new tech for.
Ex: planning to work as web dev and learning algorithms may not help much.
Check for a definite list of things you want to be good at. It's an extension of previous point but it's like know what are minimum things you should be proficient at. This is because, you already know programming, so learning a new one is just learning syntax
Try out some pet projects. You can try to do open source but that's as per your preference.
I know that lot of people say contribute to open source. However, I find it hard to contribute in the tech I'm comfortable, so I'm not sure to advice doing so in a new one. If you've some pointers on where to contribute, then that's much better.
Never give up.
Cheers
