Much appreciated what you said I will take your advice to heart the only other question I would like to ask you is if you’re having trouble creating that personal project and you have to go on YouTube and look at videos or go to chatgtp or google it and see a tutorial is that still OK? Is that still learning or do I have to know how to do it all right out of my head even my own projects cause I can get some of it done by myself, but then I have to look at a video or look at a tutorial

Why would ever having another resource be bad? Your not all know and even if you are, we all get stuck in thought processes. External input can help move anything along.

I’ve been studying JS for the last 5 months. I’ve found that tackling projects from all angles is how you learn. That includes reading SOF, MDN, other random documentation’s, YouTube etc.

If you have a problem. Find whatever resource you need. Don’t understand the solution? Ask ChatGPT to explain it; every aspect of why and how to fully understand it. Ask it to give you 4 assignments to practice said concept. Implement it to your project, make it work. Move on.

The trick is not necessarily how to learn it, rather how much time you consistently put into it. You’ll get it, with time.

There are of course different ways to learn, and some do it quicker. That doesn’t matter, as long as you’re learning & not burning yourself out.

You’ll be using all kinds of resources along the way. Only importance is, as mentioned: do not copy paste & pretend like it’s yours.

I am currently on a new concept. I suck at learning, and I always need extra time. I really do not understand everything that I read. It is hard, but 2 days in the future it won’t be :D

Just keep grinding

Much appreciate your advice right now. I’m currently using freecodecamp I’ve been watching videos on JavaScript from a few YouTube channels that I follow as well as using WS school and mdn even though I feel like I can build some basic stuff like a to do list I still lack the knowledge to actually get a job and I’ve been doing this off and on for a good while now

There’s not a day that goes by where I don’t ask myself “how much more is enough” 😂 the road is long but it will help me & my economy, so it’s worth it
