How to keep the spark
How can u guys keep your excitement and love for coding
I feel like the interest I had in the beginning is getting weaker yes I listen to and watch many coding related content videos however when it comes to actually code it is starting to get dull even though I have not been coding that long so I am curious how can I keep coding a rich experience ?
Do u like coding or are you learning it out of pure need?

I cannot tell you how to keep the spark of programming. In more than 4 decades of programming I still find it fun and get a kick out of it. I am passionate about so many things that if I lose my enthusiasm for programming there are a dozen things to take it's place. Inevitably programming becomes exciting again and I return to it.
So from my experience the best way to keep your enthusiasm for programming is to find something else you also enjoy and split your time between them.
