How to get out of Tutorial Hell?

What is Tutorial Hell?

Tutorial hell is when you're stuck in the pattern of doing tutorials, doing more tutorials, and sometimes switching languages or technologies and doing even more tutorials (usually because you hit a roadblock in the first language and decided to try something different instead of pushing through), instead of practicing what you learned on your own and moving forward.

How to get out of it?

  1. Choose your learning curve. Choose something which is easy or comfortable of your level. For example:- if you're a beginner, then choose HTML,CSS & JS for Frontend and for Backend I would highly suggest first learn a language like python.
  2. Build small projects. Build projects which take you no longer than 30-40 minutes. Search YouTube for projects.
  3. Watch tutorial smartly. Don't take or buy any lengthy courses. Read documentation if possible or watch crash course for language you want to learn in YouTube.

Conclusion:-

Tutorial Hell is nothing but your inaction. Don't overthink and take action🔥.
