if you want to speed things up you need to pay someone,
(and hopefully get someone good) but quite honestly give yourself
time, there is really no rush in buying in this market.
Ask silly questions, go to the courses (especially the free ones), take time to learn.
The most important thing though is find a methodology for yourself, for example Buffet found value investing works for him, George Soros found economics worked for him, Ed Seykota found systems worked for.
Ask yourself what you enjoy, do you like chart patters, maths, accounting, economics, etc.
Then learn more about that style.
Dont be scared to ask questions.
