Things to Avoid

Learning everything

Believe me or not. Take advice from someone who had done this mistake once. Coding turns into an obsession once you start to take a liking to it but passion isn't the only thing that matters. You should put time for your family and friends too. Remember this:

Learning every programming language would be a waste of your precious memory.

Memorizing functions

Docs exist for a reason. Real pros don't memorize everything, they read the docs.

Lacking confidense

I know, I've been through this too. There are tons of pros showing off their skills online and among so many pros it's normal to feel depressed. Don't feel low though. You're new and the pros struggled the same way you are.

Getting distracted

So, you were learning game development but now got interested in Machine Learning/ Web Development? Fear not my friend it happens but don't let it persist. Set goals and finish them. Starting new things is not bad but leaving works unfinished is evil. Don't do that.

Remember:

1. Documentations are love.
2. Stick to your goals.
3. Stay motivated
4. Don't compare yourself to others

Learn new things and Innovate <3.
