First thing to do is *learn the language* physicist speak a different language and once you learn that it makes it way easier to process physics information. Things that helped were:

- learning about symmetry groups and the terms they use there (SU(2), etc). woit has a good textbook on this

- learning all the terminology and the underling linear algebra in quantum mechanics helped a lot (bra-ket, density matrices, etc). I had a lot of fun with "quantum computer science" by mermin.

Use chatgpt to relate concepts but don't overrely on this because it can give you wrong answers

In general my method of learning might be strange, I just dive wikipedia and try to learn as much as the vocabulary as possible, and explore through things i find interesting and start learning all the language there first. Then once I'm confident that i at least know what they are talking about I'll start watching video lectures and books (lenny susskind, richard feynman, etc). Physics is vast so its best to find a spot you find interesting and try to learn as much in that area as you can.

Dunno if that helped 😅
