Its good that you are reading articles on how to script. You just got to go for it and try, who cares if you fail, just don't make the same mistake over again!

Reading is just one part of it,try making some filterscripts etc. Remember everytime you make an error, do not give up, keep asking here for help and you will definitely get some. We learn from mistakes, and that applies in scripting.
It isn't necessary you need to spend all your time learning scripting, you just need to make sure even a single minute that you spend for learning scripting doesn't go waste.
Also reading about scripting alone wont help you. Everytime you do so,you should also try to implement what you learned into a feature

If you never try, you never know. I mean, you have to start somewhere to become someone, right? How do you think everyone else started? That they just looked at it and learned in no-time? No, I don't think so, go ahead and try to make your own scripts, if you don't find the solution for something, then ask for help here on the SAMP forums.
My advice to you is to look at how others have done their scripts and do something similar.

Learn some basic languages.
• HTML
• VB
VB is a good way to start learning PAWN
it uses a simple way and it gives u enough detail about PAWN

Next start learning PAWN
most of it is in english so no problem (ie OnPlayerConnect, OnPlayerSpawn)

and also u need some basic knowledge about maths, geomentry (x axis, y axis, z axis)

feel free to ask questions, look for some online guide (well, i couldnt understand most of it)

look in the tutorials section in this forums, they help a lot.

Some basic thing:

Callbacks for statements which are called when the player does something IE
On‌PlayerConnect = When a player Connects
On‌PlayerRequestSpawn = When he goes to choose the player who he will control

";" is used to stop the function, IE it acts like a fullstop "."
Callbacks dont use ";"
Functions, Forwards (only the thing with forward blah), uses ";"

Function are statements like
SetPlayerMoney = Set's Players money
GetPlayerHealth = Gets player Health in Float (Float is a variable in xx.xx, aka a type of decimal, u can limit it by a way *i forgot* ****** about it and look for it in wiki)

And if u have a problem, ask a question and we will help u
