I love these tips, except, even if you told my beginner self these I doubt I would have listened unfortunately. Now I know to take it slow and success comes with progress. I used to always binge watch and try to do a ton of things, but end up burning out or forgetting most things and having to rewatch. It's just this undying pressure to "catch up" to everyone else, but a lot of times that "catch up" is made up in my own head.

Not everyone is capable of doing programming. It is not necessarily about intelligence, it has to do with enjoying problem solving and puzzles. I came from an industry as far away from programming as possible. I was a truck driver for 15 years. However, I was always tech savy, and did very well in school. I finally decided to go to school and get my degree in software engineering. There is a very real thing call "Imposter syndrome", were you think you dont know enough and you will never get it. This is where having a support system can really help. EVERYONE struggles in the beginning, and we all have to learn everyday on improve. I am 10 years in now and still learning new stuff all the time. Another thing I would suggest is stop going into tutorial hell and watching videos. Spend a little time learning, then just jump in and create something yourself. You will not learn just watching and doing tutorials. You have to just jump in with both feet and do it. I have now been doing this for 10 years and I am the Director of Technology for an Environmental consulting company.

I started coding a few month back. Today I just wanted to give up. Because I was feeling like I am not good at all at coding. But after watching this video I realised that I need to keep trying. Need to take small small steps. Really motivated video.

The best thing about your video is that you started by talking about your own difficulties and fears, and showing that you overcame it. Thats inspiring cause its relatable. Thanks for opening up and giving tips for the newcomers, buddy!

Coding was a representation of me running towards, not away, from something that terrified me. I was actually pretty horrible at math, programming, physics ect. But there was something inside of me that told me I had to face it, nf so I have and continue to, and enjoy my job. I love the challenge and at the end of the day knowing that I'm putting myself in front of challenges everyday

Great mentor you are. I thank YouTube for introducing such an amazing person to me. Big fan of you man!

[laraozer]

this made me feel so much better, ive always had difficulty learning to code and i felt really alone in it its nice to hear that others go through the same issue

[bhanugoel]

This is such high quality stuff! We can’t get such pure and deep insights from anywhere else. Thank you and keep you the amazing work!!!

[flyeagle]

ya whenever i overwhelm, feel doubtful about my coding or Data science . Sahil will bring up a video to motivate me . Thanks you Sahil <3

[debsouryadatta]

This video made me push back to achieve my goal, i was getting distracted from my path but this video changed my mind and now i am gonna follow my path again .
Thanks for this awesome content bro🤗

I am one who gave up on coding, but I will say this I never slept so good in my entire life, coding really works your brain. I have huge respect for the guy second sit there and code all day long it’s extremely boring but cool when you do something that is cool. I got all the way to the point where I could make a graphical user interface and it worked somewhat

I teach programming and honestly, it's hard now as an experienced programmer to teach beginners because I really have to put myself in their shoes as I was years ago and try to remember how exactly did I wish I was taught when I didnt understand code.
Its really difficult, you have to make numerous assumptions:
Do I have to teach this person how to create folders? How to save a file? What an integer means?
Do they already know some basic programming and if so how do I NOT make it boring but at the same time not complex?

[aleksapajic]

Only thing I know, is that I am stressed CS student with no job in programming.

[asparshraj]

4:09 This line....
It cleared all my self doubts and I know what I have to do now. It's just matter of time.
Thank you.

Wow! You are like soft spoken Indian programming angel! Thanks for great advices!

[ahvisrivastava]

Tbh.. I am in a decent college but due to lack of consistency.. I wasted my 2 years.. And here I am in my third year..
I was starting to hate myself until I watched this.. Im feeling ready to get back at coding from square 1..maybe a tough choice.
But i hope something would workout at the end..Thanks for this Sahil🌺

What I've learned around other students during my bachelor in computer science, is that one should not allow teachers to introduce them to programming or you'll hate it. That, of course, highly depends on the teacher, I've had really really inspiring teachers, but they are extremely small amount. Most of the teachers will just force you to learn things and give you impractical tasks and at the end you'll hate it. I was fortunate to have started programming long before we started studying it (even in high school), and I believe that is the reason I love it. It started as a desire to create games (as most gamers do), which then grew into having my own website for my, at the time, CS 1.6 server and so my programming roller coaster spiraled out of control with each practical success I had. And so when I went to university, I felt the things they teach are boring and easy, but could clearly see my fellow classmates having trouble and hating programming.

I can watch this happily cause ill never quit, get more excited every day, I know there will be hard points, but ill breathe, go away, come back, and again till I find a solution.
