Phrases with most popular characters? I found a table of characters (about 3000) in which most popular characters go first.
Here are first 20:

我的 高的 是的 目的 的确 不    不是 人    在   有   他   这 中 大   来 上 国 自个    到   说 道 子 为 和




and I would like to learn them is this sort/order but I know that it's better to learn a language by phrase examples not just by lonely words. 

So my question is: are there sources for phrase sets in which list of phrases itself sorted by frequency of usage of the characters used? Thank you.
The simple answer is: yes.

For a language learning aspect, this way(remembering words) may be boring and result in giving up unless you learn for an important test/exam. If find this boring, try a textbook or an app that let you learn it like a first language.
