Most Common Programming Myths Holding You Back!

Don't fall into these traps like I did...
🗣 "It’s not for me"

It doesn’t matter what your background is, bringing your prior experience to the table will set you apart from others and give you a competitive edge.

Don't set yourself for failure from day 1!
🗣 "I need to be a genius to be a programmer"

With coding, talent only gets you so far… To be truly great requires hard work and dedication!

You don’t need to be a genius, you just need to break everything down into tiny little problems and then solve each one.

It's no wonder why people struggle with learning.

It's simple: The system works AGAINST you.

You need to fight.

I'm learning how to code: it's painful, but it's easy if you plan ahead.

Here are 9 secrets on how to learn anything👇
1. Immerse yourself in the learning process

You should know by now that multitasking is bad. You have to isolate yourself and focus only on that task. Turn off notifications, and don’t let yourself get distracted. You’ll learn much faster and easier this way.
2. Learn in short bursts

The best way to study (and preserve your attention) is to focus your efforts in short bursts, as in 20-to-30 minute chunks. Any longer than that, and your attention will start to dwindle. The pomodoro technique is a powerful tool.
