I disagree, you should start with what you want to do no matter how challenging, figure out on a high level what it takes eg what stack you'll be using, figure out how they connect together then start at your first entree point, or in other words the one you can directly interact with, it saves you a lot of time down the road to actually have something to build to and prevents you from getting overwhelmed and you get immediate feedback which is nice.

This only works if you really like the process and you're motivated to keep going. I am kind of like that and I still need SOME stuff I'm not totally lost in to feel like I'm not just going insane. Plus you learn so much stuff along the way that if that's your actual passion project you're going to have to redo anything anyway.
