Sweetie, you can do learn anything on your own if you're ready to sweat. Grit is the only requirement thats indispensable to learn any technology.

The first few months of programming are usually quite tricky, but the key is this: keep coding. Books are great yes, but you could read 10 great books and not be able to compete with a coder that has doled out 10 projects.

My advice to you would be this: identify something small that you need, and create the app. Let me explain: when I first started, I noticed how much I used the Windows Sticky Notes, but I always had to write the dates myself. So I used Java to create another version of sticky notes.
It can get really confusing: not really understanding what youre doing. But it gets better pretty fast.

Also, finishing one project is no excuse to sit back. As youre finishing one, start another. Making projects is the fastest and most thoroug route to coding well IMO.
