It's going to take more than one. As an MVP of sorts, start with the Harvard course. As you move through that, start looking for the next one and so on. Eventually you'll know if it's time to slow down or pivot a bit, etc.

There is not a single best path. What's most important is to start walking and adjust as you go.

Agreed. I'd also throw in that you should stick to one language for a while. It can get tempting to want to play with a lot of different things. That can hurt you. I'd stick to something like javascript/python and focus on fundamentals.
