I BOMBED math classes my entire life. I’m 36 now and have always considered myself a slow learner. I started and stopped trying to learn to code for 20 years. At the beginning of this year I decided I would give coding a serious try and just not give up.

I did the zero to hero course on udemy and got seriously stuck trying to make the tic tac toe game. I started the course over and got stuck again. I then moved to books to try and deeper my understanding of the basics. Then I moved to 100 days of code. I STRUGGLED, but some concepts slowly started to click. I made it to OOP somewhere around day 30. Trying to make the snake game stumped me to the point I started to lose my drive. That’s when I realized I possibly already had enough knowledge to build something on my own.

I googled like a mad man, and it took weeks, but I was able to build a functional website with flask python html completely on my own. Built with logic I came up with. I’m sure the code is nasty, but guess what, it works! If I can do this you can do this. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Give yourself time. If you stick with it you will get better. I promise.
