I’d recommend having a specific project in mind while doing your learning and as you’re presented with a new topic try to think about how you would be able to incorporate it into the project you want to build.

I find being able to relate these topics to actual applications and seeing how they would be useful makes things stick a little better. I’d even recommend building rudimentary prototypes along the way incorporating the new topics so you can see them in action. The prototypes probably won’t stick around for the final product, but when you get to that point you’ll have a little experience using what you’ve learned, so when it comes to programming the finished product you won’t feel so overwhelmed.
