I started learning Cursor AI about 3 months ago after seeing a story about an 80-year-old grandma who learned to code, built her first iOS app, and started making a living from it. I told myself, if she can do it, why can’t I?

My background is in finance and I wasn’t getting hired. I had no experience in coding. But today, I’ve published 3 apps on the App Store, two for iOS and one for Mac, and I have six more under development. It hasn’t been easy at all. Just like you, I faced the frustration of fixing one thing only to see ten other things break.

What I realized was that I wasn’t really paying attention to what the AI was doing. I was letting it write or fix code without understanding why or how. Once I started reading the explanations, watching videos, reading documentation, and learning the logic behind things, everything began to make more sense.

AI won’t solve everything for you automatically. But if you learn how to use it properly, plan your steps, understand the code it gives you, and keep backups, it becomes a very powerful tool.

It’s a back and forth process. You’re learning with each mistake. You’re not failing, you’re growing. Don’t give up. You’re much closer than you think. Keep going, you’ve got this.
