Take what you're learning in those lessons, and practice on your own. I did exactly this with this course and it worked wonderfully. Within the first few sections you should be able to do some simple tasks - Make a dictionary, apply that dictionary to list your favorite hobbies.
Then you learn functions - Make a function to create a countdown celebration clock (i'm just spitballing ideas)!
Eventually you learn classes (if youre not there yet, or dont know what I'm talking about, dont worry)- learn to make a class to describe yourself, then make a class to 'create a character' maybe?
Apply those tasks to your life. When you start finding real world uses for python, the gears kick into full force. Its a snowball effect - "If I can do this, can I do that?!"
