Another language.
There’s something in my brain that just can’t break through the basics.
I have always wanted to be fluent in Russian...
Do you watch or listen to any media in your target language? That could be a start to help you get used to the sounds and common words etc.
It's easier but more laborious than it looks like. Think on how you learned your first language - you were considerably less smart than you are now, but if you've spent most of your time interacting with it.
A few major hints:
For me, it's mostly that i was bad at languages in school. I don't know what it feels like to make progress with a foreign language. I feel like this is an anxiety which prevents me from trying for fear of failing.
