Hi Adam!
Generally these types of question person start asking with himself when he is in a confusion or get frustrated during learning and it's does meant your are. So Frankly you are just started as u said you are working as a front end now you are going deep in javascript. Then like others posted before e.g as in Enmanuel Marval comment you can follow a roadmap to get your dream that's a good thing. But wait for a minute and think what rating will give you if anyone said give the a rating from 0 to 10 then how many no will you are going to give HTML CSS and JAVASCRIPT. And these number which you will give show your confidence level in that language.
Always be curious like if u visit a website a see something new and looks attractive then try to inspect with the help of google chrome and try to learn how is that thing code.
Learn google chrome's inspect option if you don't know how to use.

when you start feeling down then watch some fun or motivational videos that will helps more to gain confidence to start again with a positive energy .

Try to relate things to real world .
Try to make some application using html css jsp.
