Where should absolute beginners start with Python?

I’ve been revisiting Python fundamentals recently, and it made me curious about where beginners tend to struggle the most.

Personally, I find concepts like iterators and how for loops work internally really interesting, but I’m not sure if that’s the best starting point for everyone.

If you’re teaching yourself Python (or remember when you started), what helped you most in the beginning?
Was it hands-on projects, structured tutorials, books, or something else?
