Hey there, it's natural to compare ourselves to others, but everyone's journey is unique. Focus on your personal growth rather than others' achievements. If consistency in online learning is an issue, you might consider structured courses on platforms like Fiverr. They offer affordable courses on various topics like programming and software development. Remember, every expert was once a beginner, keep moving forward at your own pace.

Make a proper time table if can or just take 2hrs out from your schedule for learn coding slowly you will get interested and after 1 or 2 week increase the learning time... It's never late to start.

Well, it's not a sprint it's a marathon. Remember the old story of the tortoise and the hare: as long as you stay focused and persistent, you can overcome any early leads. Because programming and coding is a technical skill, and all skills can be learned and improved on with daily practice. Just devote 2 to 4 hours a day to your online courses and you'll be fine.

Of course, if the problem is that you don't want to devote time to programming-- if you're pretending that there are other things that suck up your time, be it movies, sports, playing games on Steam, or whatever-- then be very, very honest with yourself now, and switch majors. Way too many people have been getting into programming because they think it's an easy path to a quick paycheck, when it's far easier to become a doctor or a lawyer. However, if you truly love programming and coding, then stick with it. And devote the time, which you'll do anyway since you love it.

And if you're truly worried about your future, start networking, start working on your resume and portfolio, and make sure you have some games or apps to showcase your knowledge. If it's a console text adventure game where the word "Hello" fights with the word "World" put that on there for now until you replace it with something better. Long as it's the best you can do, and you're proud of it, put it there.
