This is absolutely, hands-down best advice. I would definitely second this. I have done ML and Data Science projects on and off at my workplace and I definitely think I know much more than folks who are simply doing lectures, courses, etc. I think working on a problem is actually the only good way to learn just about anything when it comes to Computer Science and Data Science, in general. I would suggest the OP to pick a topic of interest, define a problem statement and work on getting results there. OP needs projects to work on.
