- Focus on your fundamentals; learn how to do basic stuff like manipulating data structures, flow control and how to write clean understandable code really well. Forget about the 100s of frameworks and which language is better, that stuff doesn't matter. - Build real stuff, but realise you're still learning. You won't build a whole application or website with bells and whistles just yet. Instead use that to figure out what you need to learn either now or later and where you want to take it. - Don't feel stupid. Impostor syndrome is a real thing and even the most experienced developers experience it in some form. If you can't figure something out, take a break, take a few steps back, get help (even if its explaining to someone who has no clue), or try to cut up a problem into smaller pieces.
