i started learning html/css from w3school to a point i lost interest and stopped, am a kind of person that learns really fast but easily distracted; u know what i mean,, like going to youtube to watch how to create a nav bar but in the next 5min am watching how to talk to a giraff(lol)..
i have no teacher i only read PDFs And videos which really make me lose interest...

i have all it takes.. i work in a cyber cafe as a tech guy... i have all the time in the world.

Good for you, everyone goes through that easily distracted stage, trust me its normal, especially when you have just your-self to motivate.. well your-self

You must however keep the big picture of what you're trying to achieve and let that continuously spur you, you can only get better by learning, learning, and working on small-medium projects. Most I.T peeps in Naija have no Choice but to be self-motivated, we do not yet exactly have a flourishing Silicon Valley in Nigeria, nor the Incentives or proper Policy to support I.T based growth. Many of us just continue in this line because its our passion, and well slowly, I think things are surely getting better as many new I.T platforms for startups e.t.c are actually Implemented by Nigerians

So choose a Niche to start In (Web, Mobile, Desktop Based Software, Industrial/Embeeded. However Web based Skiils might be easier for you to assimilate and start seeing results, with time you could go into other specializations too, Find the right resources and learn/practice like your babe not breaking up with you depends on your success at it.

There's probably much more to be said, but You get the Gist
