    had the same issue, but then started to study cs and while learning programming i just started to make a very random small AWT Programm to try out stuff and just started to extend the functionality with everything that then came to my mind

    making the thing -> adding first functionality -> need to do persistence -> could add a online function via telnet -> could add smoll game etc.

    helped me a lot more than overthinking like i did before

    do you know what you want to learn or what interests you particular?
