I agree completely with Seebs, however I will mention that until you find a project that tickles your fancy there are some good places to find exercises. Pyschools: http://www.pyschools.com Project Euler: http://projecteuler.net/ You can also check out: http://learnpythonthehardway.org/index The exercises are pretty good.
