Why do I want to code more? I need the practice and discipline, basically making it a habit. I want to do a bootcamp once I return to the US, so I want to code more now to put myself in the best position possible.
How will I know when I meet this goal? When I finish out this cohort and all the activities. I don't want to drop it like I did last time. Subjectively, I'll know I hit the goal once I have a better habit and healthier relationship with coding and the learning process.
What are some of the assumptions for reaching my goal? I assume I will need to do more chores in the afternoon so I can code at night while balancing family duties.
I feel you. I dropped it last time as well. I feel like so long as you keep getting up and moving forward you will be good. Trying to stick through this time as well. I had to look at my day and after deducting sleeping and daily chores(taking kids to schools etc) I realized how much time I had left and separated a block of time for coding.
I love learning foreign languages, playing video games, rock climbing, and my dog.
I started my coding journey about a year and a half ago, where I've been learning on my own.

I look forward to meeting others in this cohort!

That’s an awesome strategy. I will do the same. I already have an idea of when that can be but would like to formalize it a bit more.
Hey Aaron,
I tend to drop it as well. I go through spurts of coding every day for a couple months, then I lose it for another month or so. Rinse and repeat.
Let's keep each other motivated and on task!
