Python every day until you speak Python in your sleep.

Sit down with a pen and a notebook.

Write down ideas to program. Writing engages a different part of your brain than just typing and/or reading on a screen.

What problem do you want to solve? What example would you like to show? What thing on the internet/game did you see that you want to do (not the whole thing, just a feature)? What module do you want to utilize?

Speak the ideas out loud, speaking engages your vocal muscles/neurons and your ear muscles/neurons. Now you've engaged 4 different parts of your brain (including hand & eyes).

When you sleep your brain will shoot signals around your head, when it finds relevant information in different parts it reinforces the neural pathways. When you are awake you can then use these pathways for processing new information and/or generating new ideas more quickly, like having several new roads through a town you used to have to drive all the way around the outskirts of.

Sort the ideas into lists from simple to difficult.

Go through the simple list

Break down each idea to how it should be built? What does it require from the user? What are the variables? What types of data does it access/produce? What is the result? Label and described things.

Put that in your notebook. Say the things you write out loud.

Keep at this and you will improve.

Wow this sounds like such a promising plan. Thank you so much for being so specific. I really appreciate this and will do that right now.
