And this is part of the problem for me - there is simply too much happening to keep track of and to make decisions about what to learn.

Instead of sitting still and starving, it is more important to "make a choice" rather than debate over which choice to make. A more solid example: PyGame, SFML and SDL do the same job, instead of debating which one to use... you should just pick one (even at random) and then complete your task. Rather than debate over the pros / cons of each framework.
