I'm a beginner at coding and I've absolutely loved my journey so far, but I feel like I hit a wall

This is my first post in this subreddit. I’ve been seeing a lot of discouraging posts of people feeling like they just can’t seem to be great at coding and I thought I’d share my story in hopes of motivating and inspiring anyone who sees this.<br><br>I began my coding journey at 27. I had absolutely 0 experience with coding, growing up I didn’t even have access to a computer until I was 12 and by that time all my friends had been coding for years so I just never joined in on that.<br><br>I began with basic python and honestly, I didn’t really give it my all. I would code for 30 minutes a day and then get distracted and all that. After a few months of doing that I just decided to pause coding and pick it up again once I moved into my own house and I finally felt like I was in a place to sit down and actually do it. <br><br>Fast forward to 2 years ago, I got my own house and was suddenly thrust into doing nothing but coding for 8 hours a day and I thought I was ready for it. But I wasn’t. Those first 3 months were incredibly difficult and challenging for me because I was the type of person who would give up easily. I never pushed myself to be great at anything. <br><br>However, I had struggled with so many things my whole life (I have a physical disability that’s required me to be in therapy since birth) and I just wanted to be good at something for once. All my life I had to accept that there were things I couldn’t do and that I was just going to have to push through the pain and hard work to get anywhere. But you know what? I did it. I’ve struggled through the frustration of not understanding something and spent 8 hours pounding my head against the wall until I finally got it. <br><br>I now work as a data analyst for a top company in my country and I’ve never been happier. I make good money, I can afford to travel the world and live a comfortable life doing something I absolutely love. There are still some days where coding just seems too hard and all I want to do is give up. But I don’t. I push through and remind myself that I’m doing this for myself and that I’ve struggled through so much already. I’m not going to let coding beat me. <br><br>Don’t give up guys, it may take you longer than others, it may seem impossible, but you never know how great you can be until you push yourself. And trust me, the feeling of accomplishment you’ll have will be worth it. <br><br>Thank you for reading.
