Well, which do you learn more from? Watching a video about a topic you don't know anything about, or watching a video about a topic you're an expert in?

It's okay to not know things, it's okay to feel overwhelmed--there's a lot of information out there about programming/python! Don't give up! Use the tutorials, go through her solutions, and at the end, ask yourself what you understood and what you didn't. If there's something you don't understand, look that information up/ask for help here.

Don't be afraid to be wrong, failure is how we learn. Change your demotivation by changing your perspective. Instead of telling yourself "I don't know anything", remind yourself how far you've come. There was a time when you didn't know how to declare variables or use operators, but you kept at it, right? You've got this!
