Right. I have been coding on and off for about 2 years but started learning consistently since January. And I totally agree with you about rushing to learn the basics. That was my problem and also jumping form one programming language to the next without real understanding the fundamentals. But now I finally figured out a better way for me to learn JavaScript and I actually learn better by building projects.

Wow, that's pretty much 100% my story, I've been learning like this for almost 2 years now, but I only consider what I've done in the last year a real learning, because I actually started building something. I had some ups and downs when I just stopped or change direction completely, it's good to know that there is someone who is on the same path, don't worry it will pay off!
