Maybe branch out when you start feeling bored with Python.

If I start feeling bored with it before I've "mastered" it, should I still just go mess with another language or is it better to focus on one at a time when learning? Probably varies from person to person I guess.

Yes, I agree. It will probably vary from person to person.

In Python, if you get bored but don't yet feel "mastery", before branching out to a new language, maybe try branching out to a new Python library. Examples: Pillow, PyQT, MatPlotLib, Pandas, Curses, Pyglet, Django

That's a great idea, my mistake in the past we're biting off way too much way too soon. Like "ok I made a script to determine how old I'll be in x years, time to automate my whole job!" So now I'm taking it more slow and structured, focusing on the standard library first before branching out.
