i just started learning c++, what would you recommend

I've started learning programming, and it's been a week or something and my friend advised me that i could learn from a better source. I started from Learncpp and I like it so far, but my friend recommended that i learn from a book called Programming principles abd practice using c++. My opinion is that it's not that important where you learn from and how much you know, but rather how creative you are and willing to find different solutions. Do you agree and if not which would you recommend from the two above? Thanks you for all the repplies!
