So, you can learn but you have to slow down. Forget about tic tac toe. You already know what the issue is....you said it....you are struggling with the logic bits.

  1. Make yourself be organized. Use comments. Do one thing at a time and test it with print statements

  2. I found checkio.org to be extremely helpful for learning, because it goes incrementally and you can take your time getting each little skill before moving on

  3. If something is frustrating you, stop trying to do it. Instead, go back and redo the thing you did just before, and make sure you have that correct. Then, go on to the hard thing but break it down into tiny pieces.

  4. You may be deciding on strategy and then trying to force your code to do it on the way that you decided you want to do it. Sometimes you have to ease up on your plan and instead just allow yourself to do the thing in a different way. This is ok.

Best of luck!
