1. Be consistent
This is self-explanatory because you can't create a habit without being consistent
What I recommend doing is trying your best to code for 30 minutes/day at least
No more, for a few months (1-2)
Just do something you enjoy (build a project for example)
2. Document your journey online
This is the thing that helped me the most of form the coding habit
This will keep you accountable to share something every day and that means that you need to code for a bit every day
Don't overthink this, just start
3. Do something you enjoy
To be fair this is a shortcut
Once I started working on my coding projects (which is something I enjoy) I started to form this habit
It become something normal to code every day because I loved doing that
4. Join a community of beginner developers
If you don't want to document your journey online, you can try this
Just join a private community of developers on Reddit, Facebook, or anywhere else and share your journey
Talk with others about what you're learning and all that
5. Force yourself to do it
You might need to code first thing in the morning
Or after you get back from school/work
That's ok, I was there too
Just find sometime during the day when you can code for a bit so you can finally form that habit and make everything easier
TL;DR
- Be consistent
- Document your journey online
- Do something you enjoy
- Join a community of beginner developers
- Force yourself to do it
