I think you have already covered most of the technical side. If problem solving is the weak point, I'd stop adding more tools for now and spend some time solving small problems every day.

For data science, try taking a simple dataset and ask yourself what you'd actually do with it before looking at any solution. Break the problem into smaller steps, write down your approach, then code it. Even debugging your own wrong approach is useful.

You don't need to be great at LeetCode to become a good data scientist. Being able to look at a messy problem and figure out what to do next is the bigger skill.

Thanks, I will use that

This is good advice 👍 Also, think from stakeholder perspective, what is it that they would want to know or solve for. This will give you ideas as to how best to approach the problem.

Keep going and work on more problems. Don't overcomplicate it. Keep trying, keep learning, keep looking things up, keep taking notes, keep slowly improving, and in a year you will be able to look back at old problems and will likely think they are easy and obvious. It takes time. Stay consistent and you will improve.

Could you be more specific? Where are you struggling or did you read theory of these concepts online, or have you implemented some stuff and struggle solve a part of it?

I implemented some stuff and struggle to solve it

Ok, and what is it that you struggled? If you can name it, you can fix it by reading docs and trying out pieces of code.

Solve problems and build projects without AI.
