Are logical thinking skills really important to programmers? (Female programmer please come in)

I've been learning programming in school for over a year now, but always feel that their level is still in the initial stage, feel the people around me stronger than himself, now learning. NET, the teacher told a SqlHelper class a few days ago, inside put a lot of methods in a class, and then can easily invoke call, It is this class that makes me feel that my level is still not 1:30, write the time can not do their own, and will not call, in short, is learned things do not know how to extrapolate, always feel that their ability to think the problem of the wrong way.

Is it that logical thinking is particularly important to programmers and how can they be improved? Now really very vacant, many teachers say the essence of programming is not to write code, but the way you think about the problem and the ability, sometimes look at the post also found that a lot of people have said that women programmers do not, there are many men say can not understand the female programmer to write code, I do not know what the female programmers have in mind, read such words, I feel a little sad, worried about their future.

Seeing that in another one months to start school, I really do not know what good method, in the end how to improve the logical thinking ability, now write the program when feel very dead, not ingenious, watching the people around a progress, the heart is very anxious, also very sad, also tried to read too much code, write code, But the effect is not very good, really do not know how to do, there are predecessors, share some experience.
