Thinking About Starting To Program?

I've been reading about programming and doing a bit myself for a while now but still haven't grasped it enough to create some of the more complex programs that I would like to be writing. So I was thinking that I could post up some of the articles that are helping me get back into it again. Most of the articles are on Python but even if you don't want to learn that specific language it still may be helpful to read a little ways into it. You will still get most of the same logic training using others too.
