Any tips for a beginner that has a short attention span?

Kinda seems like a redundant thing to ask... But are there any simple ways to program little things on the PSP? Like if you don't have time/can't concentrate long enough to learn to program the right way?

I recently moved, and it seems like I can't concentrate like I used to because there's always something else going on and consistent distractions to throw off any train of thought I can muster up. I feel like I slowly developed ADD or something...

I'm just curious. If there aren't any shortcuts or it's just too involved to bother with, then I won't fuss over it anymore. I'd really like to learn, but I just can't find anything straightforward enough before I give up and go do something else.

I dont think there is a simple way to learn programming, I'd suggest coming back to learn after you get all settled in so you can concentrate better, but thats just me. you have to REALLY want to learn, its not a short term thing.
Im sure others will say the same.

I agree with Stinkee2. I've been programming for 3 years and the 1 thing I've learned is that you have to have patience and a good work space.

"Shortcuts" ? ...Sure there are : Visual basic / and applications similar to GameMaker... But do you know what happens after a while ? You'll be looking for a way to get back on the track.

I see I'm just getting no where with this.

Thanks for replying at least.... I guess.
