Discouragement C++

So when I was looking threw the forum, and other forums. People had cited that it takes up too 3+ or 2+ or more years to learn C++.
I bust my ass learning this and I have background of vb.net, html, php, sql and like I would go to C++ learn something wait a month.
And then restart from ground zero learn everything again and learn more. Well this time around I have learned more and I just keep learning
like it just clicked instantly maybe because I have been programming vb.net since I was around 8 or 9.

But anyway my question. Is it true that it takes years to learn C++ I learned everything from
C++ Tutorial - Introduction to C++ - Cprogramming.com to like lesson 22, and I am on Video 22 of the TheNewBoston C++ tutorials just kinda a review
Is this everything of C++ or is there a ton more..

Alot of people on the internet exaggerate and I would like to know if im pretty far or what like give me a percent of done.

Mornings : Learn a lesson or something new in C++ then mess around with it for like 30 mins and bam bam thank you mama its there, because I focus!, determination.
Afternoons (during 8 hours of school) I read tutorials .
evening and night(4 to 12pm) Watch TheNewBostons(reviewing kinda, like checking if im missing anything) C++ Tuts and then will probably start another series.

So right now im kinda like C++ == Life and that's all I do. Because im determined!

Im I doing good, Im I on the right path, All the negative people discourage me and I just want to know. If I am making huge progress compared to the people that say it takes like 500 years to learn C++ . Lol

Suggest stuff to me and tell me what I can start next or what I can do to improve .. this is like a life or death thing lol that my determination level...
I wrote up stuff in my iPhone like notes and Print screened it and put it as my background like
************************************************** *******************************
Class Jake{

public:

Jake(string yell){
yell = "This is a constructor";
cout << yell << endl;
}


//thats how you build a class and much more other things smart idea eh, I look at my phone alot so I will see the c++ stuff alot faster learning
and during class if i cant take my laptop out I get out a piece of paper and just start writing programs and then test them later , the guessing game program I made I saw it after I got done with the C++ Tutorial - Introduction to C++ - Cprogramming.com tuts and was like wow what was I doing lol XD. P.S. I wrote that program during class on a piece of notebook paper xD the brought it over to C++ compiler

Took me about a hour to write this

Hai Bud. (Note1: I Didn't read your full Post)

Listen, it's a Fair Statement - although Depending on the time you put in it can Vary.
I'm going to say you can Nail the Basics of the Syntax in a few Weeks (if that).

Basically, my Background of Learning was Reading & Programming, after i Read i Programmed.
After Accumulating Programming for about 1 Year, i can Easily say that i can Stand my Ground in (C++, Direct3D, Assembly, and i Reverse Engineer to a Minimum)

I'm Basically learn from the Books as-well as my Own Knowledge.

I Remember when i was Learning.
I Basically went from Learning C++, to Learning about Objects and 3D Space (Direct3D), then Learning inline Assembly.

If your After Game Hacking, i'd Suggest C++ & D3D, Aswell as Assembly.
Else do what you Desire, WIN32 Programming, Whatever.

Remember, with no Sweat or Anger - Comes no Knowledge, good luck.

If you are determined, learning C++ will not take years, especially if you have background in programming. Mastering it is another thing, but you can program just fine even if you haven't mastered the language: if there's something you don't know, just look it up.

C++ isn't that complicated itself, but you will have to learn a lot of other stuff, too, if you want to get anything interesting done.
