If you're motivated to learn coding because of the effects it has on your thinking, there is absolutely no better place to start than The Little Schemer. Seriously.
I am tempted, in fact, to claim that The Little Schemer (and Scheme, and SICP, and Lisp...) will teach an even higher standard of thinking than other programming languages. I have some evidence for this, in the form of Paul Graham's essay on the matter.
