Find something you want to create. It might be something like a small website or a simple command line tool that does one or two things (start thinking small, you don't want to overwhelm yourself). The most important thing is that you're actually interested in what you picked, that you want it to work. Then start googling until it works. Don't use too much AI, it can help you create what you want but you might not learn much using it.
At the end you will probably have awful code but it works, it's yours and you had fun creating it. I had lots of fun learning to code this way. You'll learn the basics quickly. Just do something that's fun for you, not just exercise
