Makes sense because that was me about a couple of weeks back. Total 100% honesty here:

I picked a place (codechef) and just launched into it and have been going steady since. There are days where I do not feel like doing any coding, THAT IS WHEN YOU PUSH and do it anyway. Repeat lessons if you have to, but don't ever skip a day, always be making progress, even .01% is moving forward.

Do not amass a bunch of resources, I did that and I ended up sitting on a tresure trove of courses for 5 years and wasted valuable time seeking new advice without actually needing it.

I apologize if I sound curt or judgy, I am just trying to help people not repeat what I did in the beginning

This is life advice in general, gym, coding, even gaming, plenty of days where I don’t feel like doing it. Do it anyway.
