I just hope that within 6 months to 1 year you'll have found and built something you really enjoy working on and learn from, even if unfinished. Keep going. Positive conviction and optimism. Have faith. I hope you don't think negatively about your ideas and potential because that won't help.
What do you find extremely satisfying working on in programming?
Do you write all the time? It works for me! I keep journalling my ideas in a markdown README.md file publicly on GitHub since 2013. While I was writing I felt inspired by an idea and actually felt I desired to try write some code to implement this idea.
I encourage you! You can write your thoughts down and do small achievable things repeatedly.
I recommend using replit to get an environment quick and ready for programming in. When I was a child I wanted to be an inventor because I liked the idea of creating things.
My interest is low level things such as JIT compilers, database internals and distributed systems.
see my profile for what I've done with this strategy and my programming side projects.
