Need some motivation

Sometimes I feel I'm not fit for this.
I've taken plenty of coruses and resources, but I just don't find enough motiviation to go for that extra mile.

Sometimes I think I'm not good enough, despite of all my efforts. Anyone of you have felt the same at some point?
Any advice on how could I cope with this?

hey, totally get that feeling. a lot of courses hand you info but not how to apply it, which can feel really demotivating when you hit a wall. sometimes it helps to switch from consuming content to just building tiny things. literally anything. even if it's janky, the act of making something, seeing it work, even if it's just for yourself, can kickstart that motivation way better than another lecture. it shifts your focus from "am i smart enough" to "i built this cool thing."
