School takes up all of my time. it interferes with my learning.
Hopefully I get some more hours of coding in soon. So far this stuff is really interesting though. I barely have two trophies/badges, whatever they are. Sampler has been putting in work that's for sure. I went to take a look at your profile and was surprised.
Good work Sampler!

Hey mate,
School shouldn't be too much of an issue. Sure
there are days when I do less but really, it's done
at .5-1hour intervals when I have the time. On average
each day I play at least 4hours of sport, study/college
for up to 4-8hours. Sleep for 9hours. Eat for 1hour. So
that leaves me with 2hours to code per day roughly. To
me it's really a new form of entertainment so it's not like
its a chore to get done.
All I changed was things like facebook time down to
5minutes, only ever on my phone and not on my computer.
Less netflix and tv shows.
And less BHW (not by much just a bit).
I'm sure you could find 3-4 30min blocks of time
each day to code. That's all you really need
to start with if you have other stuff on. I can
find 30min to code easier than I thought.

Finished the HTML/css module in codecademy
today, so after that I've just been playing around
with what I've learned so I can really understand
what it all does. Hitting some roadblocks but trying
to work through them which is good. Tomorrow I'll
probably look at python for maybe 5-10 days with
HTML fun at the end.
1 Hours Today.
15 Hours Total.
45 Hours to go.
10 Day Streak.

Had some more fun today. Pretty much did all
freestyle and tried to make a website from scratch.
Began pretty well but then I wanted to do some stuff
which was quite outside what I had learned but other
than that I'm starting to get the hang of HTML I think.
Will have another good crack at it all tomorrow. Hopefully
close to 3hours of coding tomorrow to catch up a bit on the
days this week where I didn't quite get 2hours in.
1.5 Hours Today.
16.5 Hours Total.
43.5 Hours to go.
11 Day Streak.

Hey Sampler, take a look at my journey thread (day 13), there's a perfect example of what zen mean when he said that "programming would set you free"

I've missed updating this thread for a few days.
I was running really short on time so I had to
stay off BHW to get my coding done.
- Completely finished HTML course in codecademy.
- Played around with my own HTML sites
- Started JS again and will hopefully finish that soon.
Looks like I need to get a few big days coming in as
I'm running a bit behind schedule. But yeah, I've MADE
a bit more time for coding over the next few days. Looks
like I need average 2hours 45 a day to hit my goal of 60
hours in 30 days.
Today I'll try and get 3 hours in.
0.5 Hours Today.
19 Hours Total.
41 Hours to go.
15 Day Streak.

Good luck man, i hope you accomplish your goal, my story is similar to yours...In short version: Im on my PC more than 10hours, after around 6-7 years of doing nothing on my PC, i finally said, f*** this, lets start making money, this is the thing i love, internet is a great place to make money, lets start it, and from that day, i dadicated all my time on reading books, learning coding and stuff...After 5months of reading ebooks and stuff, i made my first 100$ in 2 days, since that, ive been learning and learning, lets not talk about the money, i mean they are flowing..

Had some good fun today. Here's a bit of progression
of what I've been working on. Codecademy is still trying
to work out some database issues so my streak and stuff
on there is incorrect. Once that's back up I'll move back
to JS but am just mucking around with HTML at the moment.
