I am not a professional programmer, I'm an amateur who can code python and JavaScript for small tasks. It took me many years, but finally things got better when I understood that programming is the skill of decomposing problems in small, manageable understandable taks. Once I got that, it became much easier to write my solution in my language of choice. Syntax is easy to Google for. TL/DR : for me programming is a way of thinking with a problem solving attitude, making sure to simplify the problem as much as possible.
