If you're learning, you need to be writing. You can read a book, say, The Go Programming Language, you can read that front to back and you may understand the code in there. But after, when you sit at a keyboard, you probably won't be able to write a significant program in Go. Not because the book is bad, but because you didn't PRACTICE. You have to write code. Lots of it.
All that to say, you have to put in the work to become good.
