What should we "take" from all these OOP courses as the most important?

Hello guys, this question is not regarding this video specifically, but refers to almost all the videos since SUPER() video. I feel extremely lost and brain exhausted, I have been watching all the videos more than 10 times each, but I am still having so many difficulties to understand all. My question is, what should we take from all these videos as the most important, for now? I hope one day will be ready to digest all these info much much better. Is there any good advice on what to pay the most attention too now, since I am still a beginner?

Thanks for answering in advance.

God bless you all.

Hey Aleksandar,

Pedro Cabral, who commented below recommending "a specific playlist with six videos" about OO Python on YouTube, is talking about this video on YouTube which is highly recommended by everyone who watched them. I've only watched the first video, but I can say that the videos are amazing; I finally understand self in methods!

Check it out if you're still interested since you posted this question 3 months ago.

Good luck and stay safe!

From OOP course, you might want to skip the last chapter "Dice Roller" if you find the whole topic hard to digest. You should master the first two chapters, and when you feel relatively confortable you might jump into the magic methods. I'm not sure if I can link here an external resource, so I'll suggest you search on YouTube for "object-oriented python". You'll come across a specific playlist with 6 videos which will help you cement this paradigm.
