    Eh, I’m naturally good at it. I got shoved into the programming UIL group in school with absolutely no background in programming and tied for 3rd place.

    But, I really don’t enjoy doing it.

      Why are you in programming related communities if you don’t enjoy it?

        Plus, I have to do light coding for my job (script writing)

      Exact same thing happened to me. Group project needed a programmer, I was a gamer with a nice computer so I volunteered. 15 years later and I’m a software engineer at a huge company.
