Some notes from various people

Learn the basics of C/C++, most of the problems people have are basic C/C++ mistakes and not realted to HL1
Start small, go bigger. Another problem of "beginners" is that they want to turn HL1 into Unreal Engine 4 without knowing how to make a simple entity and such.
Have patience, you can't program a new weapon in 30 seconds and expect it to work as you would like to.
Avoid copying/pasting code blindly without knowing what it does
Always make clean and documented code (don't be like Valve)
Use VCS if you know how to use them (git, SVN, Perforce...)
Making a MP mod? Support Linux for moar dedicated servers
ideally you should use CMake to manage the project files, it's easier to do cross-platform that way
