Me: trying to do any simple fucking project
Me: cant figure out how to do something simple or cant figure out how to start or how something should work.
Me *Looks up problem* (everytime...)
results: SOMETHING I WOULD NEVER HAVE FUCKING THOUGHT OF.

Am I just a shitty programmer, a shitty learner, or just not cut out for this? because I fucking Love this field. this is the only thing I ever want to do. BUT I CANT FIGURE ANYTHING OUT FOR THE LIFE OF ME EVEN WITH LANGUAGES IM GOOD AT!! WHICH IS JUST PYTHON AND IM STILL SHIT AT THAT.

I TRY TO DO PROJECTS WITH JS, OR C, OR PYTHON PICK WHICHEVER ONE. AND I NEVER KNOW HOW I SHOULD START IT, AND IF I LOOK UP HOW TO DO IT ITS SO MUCH LONGER AND COOLER AND BETTER THAN MY DUMBASS WOULD HAVE DONE (and longer in a good way because its well thought out and works)

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET A REAL JOB IN THE FIELD IF I CANT MAKE THE RANDOM IDEAS THAT I SEE ON THE INTERNET AND WHY CANT I MAKE THEM AS GREAT OR LONG AND SHIT ON MY OWN. SO MANY PEOPLE CAN WRITE SO MANY LINES OF CODE AND FUNCTIONS AND ALL THIS SHIT THAT WORKS AND YEAH THEY LOOK UP SOME PROBLEMS BUT NOT HOW TO FUCKING DO THE ENTIRE THING LIKE SOME FUCKING RETARD

    This is stage 0 of programming. Just add in some "whoa, that's _cool_" and carry on.

    And you're still focusing too much on languages. Pick one and learn how to do stuff in it properly.

    @RememberMe I'm trying to calm down and think about how I approach problems but I think I need a more fundamental understanding and practice with the language at hand

    @Bubbles pick C, go to Code Wars and do the challenges starting from very basic. Searching for a solution is cool when you can't think of one and CW allows you to see other people's solutions once you have a succesful submit, great for learning techniques.

    @-red I just need to feel like Im making progress but when I try to do sumn I cant figure it out basically every time and it doesnt feel like Ive progressed at all, I know im not gonna know everything, and looking stuff up is normal but I do it every time and Im just worried for my future at this point because I love this and I just want to be good at it and good enough to be hired

    @Bubbles When you get stuck don't look up the answer, even if it takes you 3-4 days to solve no matter how simple things are. When you have exhausted yourself then look up and understand what you were trying to do and how to do it or do it better if you have come uo with solution.

    @totoro a few questions (if you dont mind),

    would it count if I looked up something about libraries how to use something or if theres already functions that I could use?

    and how can I improve if Im not making progress with something? and what if its something small holding me back?

    How am I supposed to figure out how detailed I need to be and how to actually do it. Im always seeing people program around 6 functions for one program in multiple files and Ive never been capable enough to do that and code these large programs.. sorry for all that..

    @Bubbles yes you can look up the libraries. For functions don't look up yet, try to come up with solutions with your preexisting knowledge then go for it.
    You will improve, you just have to practice everyday and keep patience.
    You will figure out things eventually, it takes time, practice and patience. Just don't give up, keep solving problems no matter how slow you think your are progreasing. Be consistent, there will always be people to help you.
    I know this sounds like preaching hope you don't mind.

    @totoro I've been programming for 3 years now if I keep failing to create my own solutions how can I get better? Is there any resources for studying algorithms? I feel that would help cause I havent learned much about them besides a few sorting algorithms

    @M1sf3t I'm not mixing up languages, i personally dont have a problem differentiating them. Plus I'm not "bouncing back and forth" I learned JS when I started, learned python after that and used that for 2 years and now I'm using C. I'm having trouble with the problem solving side of everything

    @M1sf3t I need to take a course on algorithms but I'm also starting the in depth step by step process
