A lot of people will go out of their way to help you, but they won't go out of their way to find someone to help; you have to make the first move so they know you're someone worth investing in. If you fill your mind and waking moments with YouTube videos or tweets or podcasts, you won't have time to digest all the stuff you're trying to learn. If limiting that consumption is hard for you, then allocate a window when you catch up on news and waste time, and don't expand it. I recommend keeping your mind uncluttered in the morning, if possible.
