Anybody who does programming knows very well what it is to do "iterations" and every iteration will compile your code to what you have been looking for, it is not plausible at least the first time. With only one iteration, you can succeed that is a very far-fetched thing to say, that is why they say, "fail and fail until you succeed" or "learning to fail".
So coming back to what Chicagoan said above, yes, you need to put your heart and mind into it, but be also ready to fail with your attempts in programming because it is not always when you doubt you fail, there are so many things going behind that we cannot simply track and know in the first takes and we end up failing in our code. I was hinting in that direction, not intending to say that you will fail in programming, if you doubt yourself.
I really admire people who can go through the drill and work against the grain and say that you can learn programming in spite of your background, life situations and what nots. "Learning to fail" is just a paradoxical statement that goes with programming. Though I get it that people like to hear the other, i.e. "Learning to win".
