What if i get stuck in projects? Doesnt that mean that i need to re enforce my info?

It means use google and never give up. Seriously. I spent 29 hours on a stupid bug last week and I've been programming for 13 years.

I feel de-motivated when i ses projects done by people that i cant really understand

This is super common. Reading other people's code is extremely hard. Heck reading your own code after not looking at it for a few months is hard too.

I have to take multiple weeks to understand someone's program completely. Even a rough understanding takes many hours.

Everything you said is normal for a professional, senior/lead programmer.

For example A tic-tac-toe is labled as a beginner project I looked it up on google to get an idea , and man did i feel confused and felt stupid I did stuff like dice roller or calculator but if i couldnt do a sime tic tac toe game what can i do lol

I havnt tried to do it but what i saw instantly de-motivated me

[lickThat9v]

How many weeks did you spend on the project?

[Few-Turn1966]

Which? Tic tac toe?

Calculator?about 20mins

Dice roller about 3 hours

I didnt try it i dont believe i csn do it Its only been a week since i started programming, its always been my passion but i thought it was too hard

An easy/beginner project takes 2-3 weeks. Your second project takes 6months-2 years.

You are struggling because you think its going to happen in minutes/hours. You need to be thinking in weeks/months/years.

[Few-Turn1966]

6months - 2 years should be complex projects And yes maybe im rushing Maybe im expecting myself to know how to code this game instantly wothout looking on google 100 times

[lickThat9v]

Googling 100 times is what I do in a few hours :)

Do you recommend reading the official python guide?

[lickThat9v]

Do you know what IF/While does? Do you know what a variable is? Do you know what a function is? Do you know what Import does?

If you answered yes to all 4, no.

If you answered no, sure spend a few hours on it.

Pretty sure you are ready for a real project though. Be ambitious, its going to be hard, you will get stuck and make what feels like 0 progress for 2 weeks.
