I almost quit coding because of this...

Hundreds of hours of tutorials, yet here you are—frozen, staring at a blinking cursor.

It's frustrating. Demoralizing. You start to wonder if all the time, money, and effort you've poured into coding was a waste.

You've watched hundreds of hours of tutorials.

Your browser is packed with coding courses. Yet when you try to build something on your own, you freeze?

Panic sets in. The cursor blinks mockingly.

You start questioning everything:

• "Am I even cut out for coding?"

• "Will I ever be good enough?"

• "What if I'm just not smart enough to become a developer?"

I’ve been exactly where you are—feeling stuck, questioning myself, wondering if I had what it takes to become a developer.

I know that feeling. Not just theoretically - I lived it.

2 years ago when I started to learn to code, there was a time when I thought of giving up tech and my dream of becoming a software engineer one day and just continue with something else.

Today? I am a software engineer working for one of the biggest service based companies in the world.

Those doubts? They're not real. They're a sign of your broken learning system.

This cycle doesn’t just keep you stuck—it destroys your confidence, drains your motivation, and makes you feel like coding might not be for you.

And guess what? This is exactly what you need to fix first if you even want to imagine being a developer someday.

Over the next 4 days, I am going to solve this problem and break it down from its roots.

Tomorrow, I’ll reveal the surprising reason tutorials are the biggest trap for aspiring developers.
