There’s just too much… between work, home life details, and trying to pay attention to the state of the world on 20 different fronts, I just don’t feel like I have the bandwidth to be like “gee, I’m going to pick up a new skill today!” I need that downtime to veg on the couch and look at memes, it’s way less exhausting.
Dude I'm trying to learn how to program. Some days I can't even get started until midnight when tired brain is kicking in. There's just not enough time in the day.
Find something programming related that really interests your curiosity no matter how useless and work on that. Nothing motivates learning like having something you want to do with the skill beyond "so I can make more money".
Maybe you want to learn networking protocols and data parsing and connectivity, make a trojan horse, or a packet sniffer, or a key logger.
Maybe you want to understand algorithmic processing and wrap your head around design principles, build a calculator that intentionally doesn't work and produces funny results.
Maybe you want to get into game development? Make a dope wars clone.
You have to find your interest, after that the motivation finds itself.
There's not a lack of wanting. It's a lack of finding a time where I can still think clearly enough to code.
That's fair. Gotta keep the whip off your back long enough to rest though. You'll never have time if you never take time.
You're not wrong. This is where a 3 day weekend would be beneficial.
That's a very good point. I feel less worse now.
