I'm currently back in my learning cycle.
I often go through cycles where I'll be all-in and extremely enthusiastic about learning to code (currently JavaScript) but will eventually "lose steam" and fall out of it until the next cycle. Does this happen with anyone else? The same thing happens with things like gaming, where I'll eventually become bored of it and stop for a while. I don't think "bored" is the best way to describe my coding cycle though, since I always have a genuine interest and desire to learn.
I think I can liken this to impostor syndrome. I'm 32, did not go to school for computer science and have lofty goals which can often times seem unrealistic because of where I'm at with learning, and how long it's taking to get to where I want to be.
I think I could also blame shiny object syndrome. I've collected a good amount of courses over the years, most of which I didn't complete. Thanks to Pluralsight's free month though, I gave myself the goal of completing one or two of their JavaScript-related paths. Since it's a premium subscription, I believe I'll be able to stick to it since I won't be able to keep the subscription beyond April. So far I'm doing ok.
Thanks!
Well, that's normal. Everyone has it.
The cure is to just keep going. Sometimes, I don't feel studying but I keep going. Try to focus on the moment and don't look past it. This will make things easier for you.
This is perfectly normal Mauricio believe me. You have to commend the little effort you put in at all times and really stop comparing your programming knowledge to programmers with years of experience, also we all need discipline, sometimes you might feel like giving up and pursuing other interest because of how long and tiresome the journey might feel at times but imagine a Mauricio with professional employable javascript skills c'mon man.

I donβt know when I am at home in New York, I canβt concentrate at all. When I traveled earlier, I noticed that only in another country can I stop and concentrate on my affairs. The only place where I could not do this is Dubai. There, the city just absorbed me. I visited different places, almost did not rest. I traveled by car Evolve , which I was advised to rent, all the institutions, shopping centers. And the best place to relax your thoughts is of course Bali.
