I just made https://m.leftium.com https://m.leftium.com in a few hours yesterday; imagined it the night before.
I think I just started with a natural knack for it. So it was fun to do, which resulted in a virtuous cycle of more practice which became more fun.
Compare to several classmates who wanted to major in CS just because it opened up doors to high paying jobs (right before tech bubble burst). They were not interested in programming itself. So they found it very difficult and many gave up.
By "natural knack," I mean I can decompose problems into smaller problems, imagine how things will work (especially what could go bad), and build bigger thngs from smaller units (like Legos).
At first, I didn't understand how the internals of the computer worked, but this understanding really helped later. Especially for languages like C.
