Hey, I took a little break from trying to program but I want to try to get back in. I guess that no matter if it's Python or more complex like C, I can't learn the skills to be a good programmer. Only walking around in circles. I'm told that I need something to sustain my interest. The problem is that my entire life, I developed all sorts of "special interests", but they never had the opportunity to grow into an awesome skill.
I wish I could have a more "normal" brain like most people do, that's able to think critically and have a mind of its own. I'm going nowhere in my life in general outside of computers. I just walk in the same space forever with no improvement. I don't know what is the problem with my mindset.
As for learning to program itself, I'll give you an idea of what's going on. Imagine opening "The C Book" (my uncle recommended this book for learning C) and always having to look at the back answers to the exercises in the first chapter.
I never "got great" at doing anything in my life.
