I really love computer science, coding and mostly all the amazing things you can do with this knowledge, i feel i finally landed in my world.

I’m doing a Javascript course now and while it is really engaging to learn about how a language like that works and how to build with it, i’m getting quite tired and frustrated…

Now, i’d say i am quite meticulous when studying and i use some studying techniques to really integrate what i’m learning, but that means that 1h or even less lesson can take me all the time i have to study in a day to be understood, noted down and then repeated over the following days…

There are a lot of quite complicated concepts to understand and memorize, and, as i’m also working, sometimes it gets quite tiring.

I feel like there’s this huge amount of never ending work and concepts before i can actually start do something cool with the knowledge i have, and i really want to start doing something cool.

I re-started to study after many years so i’d say it’s also because of that if i’m not really used to it and i can’t process much informations at the time.

How can you get better into gaining knowledge? how can you prevent getting fatigued?

    I enjoy programming but I get kinda OC when learning something new, and have to remind myself to be patient. I usually plan projects that are way over my skill level (just a hobbyist).

    Most of my successful programs have started out very small and then re-written numerous times over a couple years, gradually becoming large in both scope and complexity as my mind. This allows my mind to envision the programs entirety and make better choices instead of immediate results.
