How did you guys motivate yourselves to start learning?

bump

samefag

Use a host file to block the google captcha and stop wasting time here whining when you could be practicing.

You go to school to learn

Some people will have more motivation to start if they invested in some way. Buy a beginner text book and a raspberry pi or something and start a fun project that involves python and web dev. Once you have some basic programming skills it becomes enjoyable.

just start doing it, do something, and once you have started you will continue to do so.

>python
your time will go to waste anyway
learn php instead

Life. The realisation that I want to procreate.

Seriously, that's the only reason I do this programming shit. I fucking hate it. But it pays the bills, and gives me a chance to meet a girl and raise a family.

download a time tracking app which uses pomodoro technique or something similar and motivate yourself, im currently at 4 hours daily of studying/working, and only couple of months ago I would masturbate to tranny porn whole day...

PHP is a waste of time.

Learn Javascript and become a NodeJS hipster.

Why would you want to learn python when you can learn malbolge which is much better and easier to learn?

but js is frontend

nope, sorry, it doesn't

Technically speaking, you shouldn't even take advice from us. How we have that much interest to spend that much time on this garbage site with those lowlifes is beyond me.

>doing all this unnecessary shit

Never gonna make it bruh

will this actually help me?

Because subconsciously you knew learning Python and webdev would not get you any job?
Honestly, just save some money and do a second bachelor degree if you want to do the career change. Or if you're a student, focus on doing your courses instead of webdev BS.

Nevertheless, the best way to start doing the work is by using a timer.
Set it to 10 mins. Do the work for 10 mins, chances are most of your resistance will be gone and you will not stop after 10 mins. Inline with waitbutwhy's take on procrastination. The hard part is to start.

no

How can I make money teaching programming online?

>nope, sorry, it doesn't

Yes, actually, it does. I make money from programming. It is not my first choice of job but it pays my bills. I hope to do something better in the future but for now this is my best way of earning money.

Without money, I can't take girls out. Not to mention they don't respect layabout NEETs with no job.

So yeah, it does give me a chance to meet girls and procreate. Not *at work*. That's not what I was saying. What I am saying is that I need money to attract girls. You can't attract girls if you're jobless. Unless you become a criminal. But I can't be fucked with that. Too much effort.

of course man, but first you have to set your priorities, without proper motivation you would just blankly stare at whatever you're doing. It is good and rewarding feeling when you see how much time you spent working on something after a hard day. I want to go even further but can't because of my classes

OP, realize you won't do shit, stop flagellating yourself and enjoy life.

why would i accept being a loser? that's retarded

You're experiencing denial. Some people are losers. Just the fact of life.

t. Pajeet

He's not saying be a loser. But also don't flagellate yourself.

Get a job that you want to do. If you don't want to do programming then don't do it. Do something else. Go and work in a shop. Or a factory. I've worked those jobs and they're fun. You probably don't want to do them forever but they will teach you very valuable skills.

Do a job that you want to do. As he says, enjoy life. Do what is best for yourself. Motivate yourself to get a job *in general*.

>Yes, actually, it does.
Not that it makes a difference in your case.
Don't forget, you're on 4chinks, ie your phsychology is crippled to the point where you enjoy inane shitposts by random degenerates.

>you're on 4chinks, ie your phsychology is crippled to the point where you enjoy inane shitposts by random degenerates.
I didn't ask for this feel

protip: you don't

me too OP...me too.

i dont know,
Be original

JS is everything when you run it in NodeJS

Sorry son, it's irreversible.
>inb4 phsychology
Spelling autism isn't a good sign either.

just do what you like, can't go wrong with that, i guess

>PHP

here, just follow After all, that was your decision and you can be content with not being brainwashed by other peoples ideals and delusions of success.

Enjoy living in your car, user.

That's not what I decided on, user.

Heres how you do it in a few easy step:
>what do I enjoy doing
>what is it about it that really gets me off
>Is this thing a field?

I browse the circle jerk that is the code golf and programming puzzles part of stack exchange be because I found I'm borderline autistic when puzzles are involved.
You even mention the P word and I'm frothing at the mouth in an assburgers fueled rage.

I'm now learning about algorithms and parallel computing just because my programs don't run as fast as some13 year old on the Internet.

Seriously, ask yourself if you really want. You don't need motivation from others when you know what you want.

If you can't figure it out, please just an hero. Cleanse this board of another useless frog poster.

why dont you start with something easier like the Processing sublanguage

See? That's self-flagellation and it does NOTHING to help you move in whatever direction you're trying to go.
