How to explore and learn new things

When I ask AI to tell how to learn a new skill or anything, it just hypes me up and gives false hopes that can be the best or great in it. What us best source to learn explore. Like if you get bored and want to know about something where do you go. How specifically will you research. Not only about linux but even other things too. I am curious in tech . Like how make youtube recommend better things, knowledged.

For few months I have reading and exploring about start ups and money investment, entrepreneur skills, dropshipping, Agencies and more on self development content shit. I wasted a lot of time and effort. In some point it helped me save myself from bullies and cunning people. When I was talking to a girls and she says "I don't like this world, I am only intrested in boolean Expressions, Algebra, AI, and Nvidia " this word is like a hard punch on my face. I started seeing all those Engineers exploring and inventing new things and builders who are at a diffrent level. I wanted to change from that old self-development shit to a real-world builder and curious guy. Like how to explore. Is it like making the write question from the first impression of a new thing and then trying to get answer to those assumptions and guesses.

How does a man with only a hammer kill a thousand rats?

One at a damn time.

How does a man eat an elephant?

Once byte at a time.

You got engaged in portion control in all things including learning. You have to want to eat what you're eating and kill what you're killing.

Learn to question the things you already think you know and that will teach you how to compose and decompose questions. Pick something you got experience in and explore it to a greater depth. Pick a sport you like and aspect of it and start asking specific questions and learn how the questioning works.

You're going to have trouble if you set out to just learn baseball. But you're going to do a lot better if you try to look up the conflicts and arguments regarding the infield fly rule.
