Focus on the area your interested in, if your going to try and teach yourself, then being interested in a topic is worth a LOT more then the hot language / framework as your going to be easier to master if your interested in what your doing.
If you have an artistic side, then front end web might be interesting, learn Javascript and either Angular or React. Entry bar is fairly low, and if your a visual person you can quickly see the results of your learning. There are always marketing agencies and similar that need web work done.
If your more analytical and less artistic, pick a language that works in the domain you want to work in such as:
* Swift for iOS or mac development.
* Java / Kotlin for Android
* C# for Windows Apps
* Shell scripting / Powershell / Python for System Automation
There are a heap of languages that work well with back end web development (PHP / Ruby / Python are popular).
