You need to start doing things without the hand-holding of tutorials. Take one of those tutorials you’ve finished, and start changing things. Add some new feature, make something behave a little differently. Hell, just go change random stuff and see what happens.

This.

Doing stuff all on your own is how you really start learning to build stuff.

Plus a big chunk of what I do is get told "Hey, we'd like to add in..." on some script I've never seen before, so it is really like training for your future job.
