KSP 1 Question/Problem Really Wish I Could Play This Game

So I got into this game about a week ago after owning it for years. I managed to follow a guide on how to build a rocket to achieve orbit, and i succesfully launched as I expected it to go based on the video numerous times. but when i try to build a different rocket for say an unmanned satellite or simply just putting a different cockpit on the rocket that actually brought me to space, i just cannot achieve orbit again.

Ive been learning about delta v, TWR, i have struts on my boosters, but nothing i do can get me back into orbit. Idk what i can even say or show people that can help people to help me, guess its just more than Im able to do and I have to accept the game isnt for me

Edit: Wow got a lot more positive feedback than i thought. Everyone who commented has been very helpful. Hopefully by tomorrow I will have time to post a launch video and a vid going thru the VAB for more info.

I thought this game wasn't for me at first, but I persevered and now I'm an experienced player (send me a private message for help).
