I'm not sure I had any.

I basically just had a huge "mystery zone." I had worked with flash and Dreamweaver - but when I finally started learning code (and really the conceptual stuff) - it was just a GAP.... blank spot in my mental/conceptual model. I also assumed that 'coding' and JavaScript were much harder than they were... and that kinda fed that 'blind spot' - and I worked for years and years with a total... just avoiding of certain things.

In retrospect - If I'd had a mentor to break it down, things would have been a lot easier!
