TLDR: using medium means you are letting it be easy, and avoiding the cobbler's own shoe type of problem.
I wouldn't say start small, or learn anything in particular. My suggestion: get excited, get pumped up, find something fun to do and do it! Project euler and /r/dailyprogrammer are imo both ways to amp up the fun and get in the zone.
