Any advice or words of wisdom for before I jump into learning Javascript?

Any advice for before I jump into learning Javascript? This will be my first time studying this language. I am currently in the front end track, I finished the html basics and css basics and reviewing the google coding tools. So that's where I am currently. :)

Be prepared for the fact it won't be easy.

Make a study plan.

Read documentation regularly.

Pace yourself. You don't have to learn everything right away.

And above all keep practicing. You're learning one of the most popular, useful and flexible languages on the web. Indeed, it is the language of the web, and if you can master if you'll be excited at what you can achieve with it. :-)
