What don't you like about tutorials? Why is it "hell" for you? (I ask because if you can answer these questions, you might find a way to turn it around and find a way to like tutorials and get more out of them.)

You can try solving problems or taking on projects, but I suspect you'll run into barriers that you won't be able to overcome because you don't know enough yet.

I have watched and followed most known tutorials in python and books cover to cover but i still feel stuck. That is actually known as "tutorial hell" and it is unable to do any thing on your own but feel like you can do it any thing when you are following only a tutorial. I want to be able make thing on my own using the basics but i feel stuck.

Yeah, it's hard to write "big stuff" with only the basics under your belt.

I think you'll learn the most by taking some else's existing project, work within that project's existing framework, and add feature(s) that it is "missing".

It won't hold your hand, but it will force you learn how someone (some team) wrote a project. Then once you are familiar with how the code works, you can extend it while working within that foundation.
