You’ve already got a lot of great advice. I’ve been in the same position and would submit I’m still in the same spot. What has helped is “scratching an itch”, trying to do basic things. The feeling of accomplishing something, even small, is powerful and motivating.

One idea I didn’t see suggested is pairing up with a friend and working on learning/doing together. It will help push through when the learning gets overwhelming/frustrating and bring some joy back into the process. Good luck!
