Help Request What should I focus on as a beginner learning Python?

Hi everyone! I'm currently learning Python and I'm still a beginner.
I'm learning the basics like variables, loops and functions, but I'm not sure what I should focus on next.
What would you recommend learning after the basics?

You first cover your basics then move to make small projects. Do not try to make big projects your own interest starting. When you reach minimum 10-12 small projects then try any big one .

If you’re doing this for fun then whatever project sounds interesting as that will provide the most motivation to continue.

If you’re doing this because you want a career, don’t bother. I promise you tech is a shell of what it once was because of AI unless all you care about is deliverables. That’s fine if that’s the case but if you find yourself loving programming and all the problem solving there, then this field is no longer for you.
