No, no and no. If I watch even 10 Youtube videos without building anything, I give up.
I'd love to learn electronics. You know what I need? ONE Youtube video, and a single kit I can buy on Amazon.com to build what's shown on the video. Then a second video, and an exercise (either with the same kit, or something else).
That's how I would stick to it.
Too often, people like you think that the issue of learning is about finding information. It's not! In the age of internet and being one or two click away from everything, the issue is simply to keep the motivation high.

This is true. I think the key is to find something that you really want to build. This is easier to do as a kid, because a lot more of simple things are exciting.
