I'm a self-taught developer and went from 1 Lynda course to a career in software. I owe most of my learning to tinkering.
Building small little personal projects just for fun. Taking an interest and trying to manifest it in the form of software.
You put something at stake by trying to make this little toy project work so every time you face a problem you're motivated to figure it out just so you can get to the next step. All the while you're learning from experience. This is a lot like how professional software writing is. Learning in real time from experience.
