It's now been 4 days since I wrote a single line of code. That's not good. Practice and keeping what I've learned at the forefront of my mind is important and that much time without coding is an easy path for me to start forgetting what I worked so hard at acquiring.
Getting back on the horse
I don't know about you but, I tend to put others before myself very often. It may be because I am more agreeable than most...but even though sometimes it can be a virtue, sometimes it's also a vice to can make me resentful.
Why did it happen?
It's all nice and motivating to say that "it's how quickly we get back up" that counts...but it's also a good thing to take a moment to reflect on WHY we fell in the first place and then readjust our behaviors so that it doesn't happen again.
My guess is that I haven't systematically set a time everyday to go over material. I went full hog without a schedule and then when other things came up and no time was available...4 days went by without a single line of code.
Conclusion
Having a learning path and plan is good...but without a schedule and a routine to empower it might be a recipe for disaster.
I write about this a few days ago about the importance of saying “no”
When we say yes to something we simultaneously say no to something else, and if the thing we are saying “no” is ourselves that can cause us problems in the long term. Therefore, even if it might sound selfish, sometimes we simply need to say no to other people. Only that way we can find proper balance for us.
Cheers dude!

Not even 10 minutes into this your post has already gotten over 100 votes. Why bother learning to program when you can simply write articles. lol.
Regarding the allocation of time I think with today's hectic schedules it maybe better off to just do the stuff when you have time and push hard on it. What I mean is if I have 1 full day to do what I want I just dedicated all into studying that whole day. See how much I can get out of it because tomorrow I maybe busy with something else and do not have the time to pick up where I left off. It will be harder to pick up where I left off if I do not do it for a while. Make the best of what time I have. Thanks.
BTW I will come back and upvote after 30 minutes on your post. Just want my curation rewards lol.

Discipline Discipline Discipline.
Writing needs to be a daily habit, like breathing or taking a shower. No matter what comes up, barring an extreme emergency where there are EMT personnel involved, writing needs to take place on a daily basis. This is what the successful always state.
I watched an interview with a romance novel writer, the name that escapes me, who is one of the most successful in terms of sales. She said she wrote everyday, for decades...without missing a day. It might only be 500 or 1000 words but she got it in. That is dedication to her craft.
I have to view things in that light since I tend to lack the discipline. My goal on Steemit is two posts a day (I allow myself only one on Sunday). This I do no matter what....it is something that I committed myself to. If I do not have this etched in my mind, something else will come up.
So I make it a part of my day, no matter what.

Oh, yes, my friend, I understand you perfectly, and such a state happens to everyone who wants to strive in their lives. We try to learn, create, succeed and the main advantage of a person helps us - this is his life experience. Experience and knowledge in the most diverse areas of life. A person with a rich life experience is ready for success. His failures were the necessary preparation, the time of discipleship. His main mistakes he has already committed, and there is no need to expect foolishness from him. He is hardened by difficulties and adversities, he knows how to hold a blow - unlike those who can not boast of a great life experience. Thank you @cryptoctopus

To achieve something in life we need to make a proper plan and implementation of that plan in proper order is must. Yes you are very right that we need to look back that why it happened, because we have to prepare ourselves to avoid that mistake again. Keep in touch with your work specially in your beginning days. Keep going, good luck.

Yeah I have noted you didn't post as usual! But I thought you were busy wit coding. Anyway, your type is more generous than others and helpful. Sometimes it might make issues like you highlighted here. I know you won't say NO to people, but if you say NO today, I think in future they all will experience the benefits from your works. Try to attach with the schedule, practice is the most essential thing! Hope to see your coding session tomorrow!

Time management is the most important thing to implement in your life when you start learning some new skills. Most of the people give up because they try so hard and expect the results to be in their favor asap but unfortunately, it doesn’t happen. I hope it doesn’t happen to you but what I would suggest you to give max 3 hours a day and then just relax. 3 hours doze of coding is enough to remember stuff in the longer run.
I am also learning PHP and still in the procedural phase. I have set a goal to become an expert of this language at the end of this year including OOP and laravel framework, so I am going slow but in the right direction.

I have always been complaining lately that time flies too fast because I am juggling my time here and there between office-family-Steemit. But for you I suggest just a schedule to follow that will manage your time better. I wish you success in your learning to coding and programming so that you will gain your superpower soon.

It takes a lot of discipline to master anything. You also have to be very FOCUS and sacrifice a lot, which means not doing trivial many things, but prioritize. If you want something badly and you now why you want it and your why is strong enough, you will get there, but it takes time.

I suck at schedules, I'm just not that kind of person. I'll admit too that I have suffered for it. I think for me though that it is important to roll with it. When I have tried to organize it has stifled my creativity.
The bottom line is I gotta do me AND I gotta make that work for me. Finding the right balance of me/functional can be hard for a freak like me.

Coding is great @cryptoctopus but you must remain active, practicing the codes to become professional. Taking a break from coding is disastrous, this can lead to you having difficulty when next you code.
You said the solution in your conclusion, we must add schedule and a routine to empower or learning path.

Sure, ones you leave it, it leaves you. Programmers code every single day because most of them take it as a hobby.
Coding is like every other thing you try to learn and it's even more difficult when you don't do it for a while because it has to do with getting acquainted with lots of things perceived as jargons and breathing life into it and the final product is the software that comes from it.
In conclusion , try to create a schedule for yourself so you don't drift far from coding and won't be able to find your way back.

You right around 100% need to plan time for any movement like this. Make it a meeting with yourself, and don't give anything a chance to meddle with that. After only half a month you'll soon find that the procedure is relatively programmed. That doesn't mean you can expel the "arrangement", however it will mean its less demanding to shut out different things requesting your consideration when it comes time to chip away at coding. Good fortunes and continue working towards your objectives

Despite being well planned, the most important factor that is effective in reaching the goal of a program or course is the time. For example; the teacher might have made a perfect plan that would make sense in a four-course course. However, if there are two courses that he / she can use for that subject, and he / she has prepared his / her plan without considering it, he / she will end the course without giving a statement and can not give the information he wants to give.

Time management (and procrastination) is my downfall. Can get a lot done in a short amount of time, but if I had just dedicated myself to, and scheduled out, a couple solid hours of work every day/week for a project then I would've been a lot further ahead in the end. Also would've created a better end product than I did in a 1-2 day cram session.
I try to fix it every so often and get organized but I'm procrastinating right now by reading your post and writing this comment... Gonna get back to work now.. promise.

I once decided to learn playing the piano. I practiced one hour every day and I was astonished by how quickly I was able to learn. After two weeks, I stopped playing regularly. Needless to say, I don't know how to play the piano anymore:p I did, however, have no problem programming in Java after a one year break. It's curious how these things work. Get back into Javascript before it's too late!

You almost 100% have to schedule time for any activity like this. Make it an appointment with yourself, and don't let anything interfere with that. After just a few weeks you'll soon find that the process is almost automatic. That doesn't mean you can remove the "appointment", but it will mean its easier to block out other things demanding your attention when it comes time to work on coding. Good luck and keep working towards your goals!

Yeah! Another diary again.
I've been waiting for days to read from your new diary and I've been wondering what went wrong.
Yeah!, Sometime staying for a long time without consecutive coding practice and a long break from coding makes one to forget most of the thing he/she has learnt..
A practical example is when I stopped coding in java, it got confusing when I started again and I discovered that I had practically forgotten how to do a whole lot of things, most especially how to arrange my classes.
It's all nice and motivating to say that "it's how quickly we get back up" that counts...but it's also a good to take a moment to reflect on WHY we fell in the first place and then readjust our behaviors so that it doesn't happen again.
Yeah, it's all about disciplining ones self. For me, I've learnt to be more focus - even though I sometimes fail in doing that. I've also mapped out schedules, reading and coding time, alarms and everything that'll put me on my toes to remain focused and dedicated.
Thanks once more for this diary @cryptoctopus. Today's own is a bit motivational and I've learnt from it.
Hope to read more of ur diaries soon and maybe grab some coding tips out of it.
Happy Steeming

So... are you saying that writing code isn't part of your routine yet?
It's not the worst thing in the world to take a break from things... no one can have such a regimented life that absolutely no new tasks can be introduced, there always has to be some give and take.. but I spreadsheet my day because I can never keep track of all the things I need to do and all the things it'd be nice to have done. Working a normal 9-5 job is so much easier because you go to work, and work, and go home... working on stuff like coding is so much harder because you might lock yourself away for two days, or you might not touch it for two weeks. At the end of the day it is a language so the more you immerse yourself the easier it is.

I have limited brain power so I tend to have to focus on one thing to really get it. Unfortunately I am not good at that.

I have wanted to program for years, but always fail (see a couple of my posts), but I keep trying again. Of course trying to also focus on Steemit divides my attention.

I can fully relate. I've been teaching myself 3d modelling and rendering, on and off for the past 3 years. I seem to get into good habits for a few weeks where I get into a routine, am able to study through the trickier topics and make real progress with it. Then I get distracted by something that takes me away for a few days or weeks and its so hard to return. I guess its like a lot of things, when it becomes part of your routine its works great, progression and improvement happen at a really rewarding pace. Its just a matter of keeping with that routine.

In addition to the sound advice already written, I personally find keeping a TODO list essential to be productive. Does not matter if it is trello or a plain text file, as long as it breaks down everything into short specific tasks, with some organization and priority. In particular it is very helpful when starting to work, you avoid procrastinating and have no worries of "what to do next". As long as you get started on an item in the list and if you manage to focus for about 15 minutes, any struggles you have with keeping your mind from wandering will be gone.

I feel like it’s important to mix discipline with rewards, essentially manipulating your own psychology to want to do the task and to find it more engaging.

I disagree (on the basis of my own experience). As I told you in your other post, making breaks is important. Long break to. That gives you some time to think about problems and possibly tackle them with another approach.
Having a schedule for coding is good, but keep in mind that the schedule may have to be adapted (you cannot evaluate how much time you will spend on bug hunting, and user support once your code will become public and used).

ohhhh yeah get back on the game... I know the feeling of thinking more about others than ourselves and I know also that is something almost impossible to control!
That also takes a lot of practise. Maybe You need to write a code that will help You remind about that every day and just program that code every morning... over and over again. until You find the balance between Help Yourself and helping others :D

I can't say I know how it feels to code and what impact it has on your thoughts and feelings. Everything I do is bind to emotions and experience, especially when doing something we would pinpoint as "our thing"
But reading your thoughts the first thing that comes into my mind that resembles similar relations is being on a certain diet with a goal.
I'm a certified fitness trainer and I did several transformations throughout 20 years of being in the fitness scene myself and not sticking to a plan although actually doing work also set me back without first realizing it.
It's weird!
Although I have all this experience it's like I forget about steps I did hundreds of times just because my body forgot about it for a while. Not sure if that makes sense. It's like a spark of inspiration that is lost on the way and only by enduring a plateau of "nothing is happening" we enable ourselves for the next step forward rather then bouncing back and starting over.

Sometimes we feel depressed but we didn't ask ourselves why we are depressed?
That's easy when we go far from our dreams and do what people want not what we want we felt depressed. say no when you feel uncomfortable say no to these who's want you fall.

Now,this is a very good conclusion @cryptoctopus .....
"Having a learning path and plan is good...but without a schedule and a routine to empower it might be a recipe for disaster."
falling has never been a problem to great men indeed, but how they are bold to summon enough courage to nstand again each time their backs are touching the floor....
my favorite personal quote, "when you fall , fall with belly facing upwards , for as long as you can see the sky , there is hope for another try"
