I feel like everything is so different this time around. Last time, I was just doing FreeCodeCamp with no support. I felt like a failure because it got to a point where I could not solve the challenges. Now I have found a few communities, like Flavio Copes Bootcamp, this platform and others where people are so willing to help. The other difference is that I realize I have to build stuff in addition to studying and doing code challenges. I am seeing a lot of growth just by changing these things around. Lastly, seeing code that throws an error or won’t execute used to really frustrate me. Now, these failures are my teachers. Just a different midset.

I do like gamified stuff. I wish there was something like flexbox zombies for JavaScript πŸ˜€
