The biggest hurdles I think most people face is maintaining momentum throughout their educational process.

Most people want to start something new and quickly fall back into their old patterns that didn't include this new thing. You have to make time in your life so this becomes a consistent and ever present part of it.

So, my advise to you is to study for some period of time every single day, even if it is a 1/2 hour. Make it a habit.

Start with reading a intro level book and make sure that you get through it. Even when you don't understand what you just read. Just finish the book. Read it every day. Parts of it will be easy to understand and it will start to sink in. Then, do more.
