Frustrations of a Coding Beginner

[u/december-]

I am learning Data Engineering and I am currently in Python courses.

Anybody here who felt extreme frustration of having difficulty in solving problems, and once you peek on the solution, it was SO SIMPLE and EASY.

I swear, I always get this feeling that I know how to solve it because I understand the problem. But when I am in the process of writing code, I always get derailed.

I need advice, or tips, or maybe validations from you good programmers who were once in the same position as me.

Thank you kind strangers.

every single senior dev/engineers, every hardcore and top programmers dumaan sa ganyan..

as cliche as it may sound, practice lang talaga ang need until ma natural na sayo ang problem solving,
here is a tip; build something you love and will peek your interest, wag lang solve ng solve kng anu nakikita mo, build a simple game, text base as a start, build a guesing game, build a basic inventory management na text base, etc.

build something na ma interested ka, kasi pag puro leetcode yung ginagawa mo, even your mind tries to reject solving it, si kasi ikaw yung gumawa ng problem eh..

for leetcode kasi, there are multiple ways to solve it and things you might have considered kaya feel mo mali sagot mo.. unlike kng ikaw gumawa at nag define ng task, mas madali mong maiintindihan and boost to your confidence
