Part of my issue is that I need to see and do what I'm learning, in order to have much of a clue. I dunno what the other part is. Just don't get it, and it really PISSES ME OFF. I'm not used to not getting it. >_<
Read lots of past posts by people you've learned know their stuff. Parse the words and phrases, do a lot of googling, take extensive notes in a good full-text searchable tool that suits your learning / thinking style.
Ask good questions occasionally when you're stuck. Maybe starting new threads on important topics that will also benefit others, e.g. "What are some good 'DC Electrics 101' books and online resources for noobs?"
Post strongly worded opinions that may be wrong, if the gurus don't correct you got it right, if they do you learn & profit!
Keep at it, not rocket science, when there's a will there's a way.
Or if you find it boring, stop and find more interesting ways to spend your time.
