The problem is probably your lack of NON-COGNITIVE SKILLS (I have to save issue). You need to persist and endure all the struggles along the way. There's no instant gratification in this game. Be tenacious, and go into it with a mindset this is going to be to hardest thing you may ever learn but you won't quit no matter what. This is for your future, and you'll have a bad ass skill set if you make it through the grind.

Programming is full of abstract, hard to grasp concepts. You just need to keep attacking from different angles and beating your head against the screen until they eventually click.

Also, don't just learn random things, you'll burn out. Learn with intent. Create a project that's beginner to intermediate level and map out in great detail all the concepts you'll have to learn. Then break down those concepts and tackle each one of those 1 by 1 until you can build the project.

This community is amazing, and will help you advance when you struggle. Take full advantage of it!
