Programming is really daunting / myLot

How do they do it? I'm talking about programmers who continuously code and solve algorithms on a daily basis. I'm guessing they've been in the same predicament as me when they were still starting out. I've recently started learning to code, particularly Javascript, HTML, CSS, JQuery, and Bootstrap for front-end, and PHP, Node JS, and MySQL for back end. I've got to say, coding is very hard. The algo challenges are brain twisters and they keep me up even at the wee hours of the night. Any programmers out there? What are your experiences?

I read that high skilled programmers from top notch schools are immediately hired by the government. Lest they start working against the system.

That's prestigious yet scary, though. What if the government doesn't need you anymore? Or they've decided that you already "know too much"? Really scary!
