A book or somebody who can explain things well would help tremendously.

Sometimes a book would just say do this and do that and something will work without never telling you what is going on and why. One example is React, Redux, and React-Redux, and Redux Middleware.

Honestly Physics and Math are not that difficult if a book can explain it well. It is better in USA: I have read some good textbooks. In some textbook I have read in Asia, it was written as if it was to confuse you.

Somebody may says things, and I don't know if they really intentionally try to confuse you or what it is. Let's use something you can familiar with: can you make chocolate in the form of a rabbit? You know the answer is "melt it and pour it into a rabbit shape container". But that person will tell you this, "the textural composition of chocolate allows it, although the artistic craftsmanship factors in this task as well.
