I've been studying and coding in Python daily for a few months now, but I often feel like I'm not making real progress or getting that "aha!" moment. I understand that practicing is important, but I think many people recommend starting your own project to really get immersed in coding. I'm looking for advice on how to approach starting a project. What tips can you share to help me become a more dedicated coder?

Don't stress about becoming a "god-like programmer" right away. Focus on becoming good at creating things you want to make. Remember, there's no finish line in learning to code. You'll always feel like there's more to learn, and that's totally normal! Just set small goals and tackle one thing at a time. The key is to keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone with new challenges. If you ever feel like you know everything, that's when you should worry!
I totally get that! But could you clarify what you mean by constantly repeating things throughout a programmer's life? I'm doing that already but still feel inadequate sometimes.
