In high school, I decided I wanted to try to learn to code, so I searched for "best programming language for beginners", and that told me I should give Python a try. Back then, Replit would let anyone start writing and running programs right away without making an account, so that's where I got my feet wet with writing code. Now I do it for a living. The trick is to be humble enough to not hesitate to search online any time you don't know something. I would set myself manageable little goals for every program I wanted to write, then I would search online for any detail I was missing to make it happen. At my job now, the goals are set for me, but the process is otherwise the same.
