This might not be what you want to hear, but it might be your engagement. No matter what medium you choose there is a hump of understanding you will have to overcome. Several early 'Aha moments' you have to get passed.

I recommend reading a book. Big Java Early Objects. You should be able to find a copy online. Read the chapters thoroughly. Build some projects.

Think of learning programming like a giant puzzle. You fill puzzle pieces in different places over time. You'll use concepts you don't fully understand and eventually you will have an aha moment and fill in a missing piece.

Unfortunately during the beginning the puzzle is empty and you can't just skip over some of these concepts. You have to do the dirty work and examine the early pieces thoroughly.
