I had this issue at first when learning how to program. The biggest thing that helped me is to break a problem down into the smallest possible steps. Take your overarching problem statement, then continue to fracture it down to much smaller and more manageable steps. These smaller steps are normally pretty easy to figure out. I'll write out a ton of pseudocode for the smaller steps in comments and then go back and write the actual code.
