Learn To Learn
I realized that when attending an education institution, regardless of educational level, they expect us to learn everything thrown at us. It can get really complicated, especially in college or a boot camp. All the knowledge you need to learn is already more than enough, not including the other interests that you're seeking. For example, you are working on a coding project or trying to understand a new topic and for some reason you are pinned down in that same problem for over an hour. Then all of a sudden you have a headache and somehow you forget to read which prevents you from pointing out the misspelling of a word that is messing up your code. Little did you know that you burned out your brain. This happens when you’ve pushed your mind, reached the limit, and your brain starts to lack cognitive function. So I’ve done some research to help me with studying and learning new topics faster.

Jim states that beliefs are powerful. He implemented research in psychology about the effects of positive and negative mentalities. Jim concluded that most of us have an identity inside who bashes us, saying “You can’t do it, its too hard.”. Reaching a new goal is a challenge, but it’s still highly achievable. Make sure to take every step necessary to get to it, try not to skip ahead, as it could make it harder. Whenever you are nervous about something, take a look to a similar event in the past, then take note of about how it went (whether great or bad). In example a public speech or presentation. Most likely no one booed you out or threw things at you. Instead people gave you their attention and clapped at the end. This means you’re better than you think at presenting or public speaking . This helps boost your confidence and tear down that evil voice inside of you.

Whenever you make a mistake, it means that you are trying to accomplish something. This should be the way think. In example, when coding, you might get one or multiple bugs, most would think that you don’t know how to code. Instead think about it as, “I am trying to understand how this works and why .” This makes your inner beliefs understand that you are trying! Again, this helps tear down the evil voice inside of you. Learning new things only takes time, practice and is always possible. No matter the age and condition of a person. If you are having trouble learning, find a new way to understand the material, a new approach or ask for help. Asking for help is always great, it can help you understand and see a problem in a different way. Explaining what you learned to someone is even better!

It might be just over simplifying it, but coding can be pretty straight forward. If you think about it, you are working with a set of instructions. All you need to do is understand what these instructions do and how to combine them. That could be said about any other topic as well. Take the time to learn things properly by taking each step and you will be limitless before you know it.
