In my experience, it is best to understand the mindset behind DevOps, it will help with all the necessary pointers and the next steps regarding your learning @nvsblmike. My approach will be to complement from @jatin 's because he got the whole technical part already setup for you.
I would start with how it was created to support business with their goals, and how to speed up the whole cycle. The white paper "SUCCESS WITH ENTERPRISE DEVOPS (ENGLISH)" in this site exin.com/certifications/exin-devop... is great and give a brief and overall view
The book "Continuous Delivery Reliable Software Releases through Build, Test, and Deployment Automation" is a must read. It will help understand the importance and different methods to push software to production faster
From there, I would go for "The Phoenix Project" book, It a novel, and a very pleasant read and get to understand the "why".
From there you can deep dive into the business part of it with other books, otherwise follow the technical part depending on what stack you are interested. I work with CI/CD using Kubernetes, containers, etc. Ping me if you need some more pointers.
Hello! I'm nvsblmike, hehe. I'm a software engineer in the making. I am also enrolled in a devops programme cuz I just love the cloud. I really hope to become really great at the two. :-)
Sure @patrick_londa, thanks for asking

wow thanks a lot, Id surely do well to keep in touch.
Indeed @danielfbm, devops mindset is far more important than learning various tools or technologies.
I definitely need some 101 blogs from you on Kubernetes.
