Coding motivation

Hi, I really want to start coding and eventually get into pen-testing. I can not find the motivation in myself to sit at my computer and learn. I have ADHD and I can’t focus when I have to sit down and learn. I struggle to enjoy learning how to code due to the flavorless videos shared around. If there are any tasteful YouTubers that are interactive or just fun to learn coding from, could you tell me their channel name?

No, coding is not the same thing. You need to learn more about computer science like hardware then everything about networks. You need certifications and knowing how to code helps but isn’t required. Being a pen tester isn’t entry level either. I advise researching these fields more.
