Just starting to learn about IB

I have been absorbing lots of valuable info from this forum but wanted some advice on the best way to familiarize oneself with IB as a beginner. There's a lot to learn and understand so is there a good way to do read/do something before learning another thing?

Current Resources: R&P IB book Intelligent Investor book/ WSJ/ Economist/ Bloomberg WSO behavirol prep Damodaran valuation vids A simple model

Suggestions?
