That what I'm thinking. I know I can learn anything but I've gotta dive in, and I struggle to hold myself accountable on my own projects. I've done a lot though like jailbreaking consoles or getting into Linux and I think I could probably be useful somewhere

If you're familiar with consoles you could try building a simple console app with C or C++ on Linux.
If you like making graphical UIs, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript gets you all the web development basics.
