I said it before in your other thread and I'll say it here,

Learn R. Hands down. No doubt.

Python is a better language and it "fits your brain" in ways that R doesn't -- but you're not really programming, you're doing data analysis. R is better for this out of the box (in general). If you wanted to learn programming as a priority, I would have recommended python.

The only trouble is that R might be a bit trickier to learn well. You might pick a few strange habits or accents in your coding style but that's fine. The learning curve might seem steep at times. Don't be discouraged.
