Everyone agrees that coding is a profitable career, however, a lot of people are afraid to learn coding because they believe coding is a very difficult skill and knowledge.

Stick to a single language: As a beginner, you will be overwhelmed with the languages, and you will be flitting from one programming language to another language. This will hinder you from progressing.

Stop worrying about breaking things: Breaking code is a part of the job, therefore you should not be hesitant to try new things. It is ok to break the code.

Work on your own ideas: you should work on your own project instead of just focusing on the tutorials. Tutorials are great but focusing too much on tutorials will stop your ability to solve issues

Join the coding community: Having someone to rescue you when you are stuck will be a great advantage. Therefore join the coding community on the web. Having partners and friends is better than doing everything by yourself.
