When you face a challenging project, break it down into a list of smaller pieces. Make sure the small piece works. If it doesn't work, there should only be 1 small thing that you need to figure out to get it to work. You also don't need to work on the pieces on order. Sometimes it helps to be able to work backward from the endpoint. Even if the overall project fails, since everything is small and simple pieces, you should be able to re-use the parts of the code that work in some other project.
