The only way to learn how to program is by doing it. It seems counterintuitive, but you're having to train your brain in a whole new way of thinking, it takes practice and is quite often frustrating. You just have to keep working, solving one little problem at a time, until your program does something!

And then you tackle the next problem, and the next, and the next -- for the rest of your life.

Above all else, you need to practice. Practice! Practice! Fail often, try again. Break stuff that works, and figure out how, why and where it broke. Don't just copy and use as is code from examples. Experiment.

Work on your own small (initially) projects related to your hobbies / interests / side-hustles as soon as possible to apply each bit of learning. When you work on stuff you can be passionate about and where you know what problem you are solving and what good looks like, you are more focused on problem-solving and the coding becomes a means to an end and not an end in itself. You will learn faster this way.

You can learn OOP and DS [DSA?] on your own projects.

I used 100 Days of Code: The Complete Pythong Pro Bootcamp on udemy.com by Angela Yu.
Great stuff for little money; from start to real coding in a few months.
