I’ll start (obviously). Sometimes I get reeeeally disheartened by the challenges on here because I feel like I’m not good enough or logical enough to figure them out, and a lot of the times, I have to google A LOT and end up just piecing my answers together not really understanding it.
Well, tonight, I finished one of the challenges, without looking at any code samples of it online, and completely on my own. Granted, it took me about a week to finish it. But every time I wanted to just google the answer, I told myself that doesn’t help me at all, which is the entire reason I’m doing FCC, and that if I just stick it out, I will figure it out. And I did.
And while being a developer is still far away for me, I’m sure, this makes the prospect of it seem just a little more possible.
