Here’s the thing, Software Engineering is not Computer Science. Never once is my career have I had to write an esoteric interpreter or even a Hard level dynamic programming algorithm.

What I have had to do is dive through twenty layers of method calls to find why a Null Pointer Exception was occurring or replicate an edge case that occurs .0001% of the time. I have looked at code I wrote a year ago, and wondered how I could have been so stupid. But in the meantime it still delivered millions of dollars in value.

Building software is more about having grit than being clever. Stick with it and it’ll get easier.
