Just bought Pro Drupal Development by John K. VanDyk. This and a syllabus I just finished putting together for myself will help me organize the Drupal learning process for me. My goal is ultimately to develop mastery of a content management system in order to build websites with it for work (day job and personal).

I’ve worked with a few already in formal and informal settings, having this goal will help me put the pieces together so I can fully incorporate this into the tool belt. It’s great to be able to build sites for folks who need them but to give them something they can maintain for themselves (teach a person to fish) is the ultimate goal. This will take me several steps closer to that end, I’m hoping.
