Guys it's stupid but how do you get motivated for coding ? I'm actually learning C++, it's my first programming language but it's hard to continue, I love coding and making games but I'm a real newbie and I'm 90% of the time completely lost, I've made 1 shitty game but it's from a tutorial, and for c++ I'm still stuck with overloaded operator.
I'm sorry for my awful english but it's not my mother tongue. Do you have something advices ? For example stopping completely playing videogame ? Thx ;)

Motivation is cool and all but you need to put in the effort. If you really want to program then spend more time on it. Do more projects. Throw yourself into it. Nobody's going to push you.

The issue with you is that your programming concepts are not clear, thus no interest even thou you are motivated. Try understading it, type it, read it till you understand the concept. Once that clear you will feel like doing programming or improving your own code or someone else code.

@irene I'm really motivated, maybe it's c++ pointer and overloaded operator my problem, maybe it just takes times (I'm coding for something like 10 days)

Pointers are just special syntax for integers that are used to access a global array.

Overloaded operators are just syntactic sugar for function calls.

Those concepts are so simple, there isn't much to "understand". It's mostly about remembering the right syntax, which happens automatically after looking it up a few times.

Update: my problem was ... the course, it was an outdated and apparently bad course, I've talked with someone who gave me a better C++ course and it's a loot better, I'm actually on steroids. Thanks a lot anyway !!!
