Tips for balance coding and study

I didn’t build that !?

I thought you were talking about this FCC video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJgsSFOSQv0

I just read those projects in the table of contents.

Yes, I saw this video.

Hi, Let me first of all point out:
Your thread question might look obvious as you underline. Though, any reply tries to take in account which context it relates to. What’s the real problem behind this question? What is your aim?

If you want a good answer, then learn making good questions. A good question is half the answer. This is a general advice.

As a general reply I’d anyway say that I’ve personally never officially been diagnosed with ADHD however I always am drained away by a mixture of easy enthusiasm and lack of planning.

Luckily, I discovered that planning a set of duties, and staying just within that, even if storming inside it, helps me focus. After all, what is solid is proven by storms haha

Therefore here’s something very useful to help you manage the case: an Agenda, which is not a straight to-do list. It’s a collection of projects that you should accomplish within a certain date. As you are trained to do things fast, you are more prepared to the real life. Real life is sometimes cracking one’s own head, staying awaken a night to respect deadlines. Make it a game.

Some things are daily, some things are weekly. For eg. you may define Javascript each day, and C++ on Monday.

As time goes, you will discover what’s the order you prefer. As I said, I don’t go well with too tight scheduling, I’m more of being free to craze around.

The IMPORTANT fact, is doing a good planning before: study the project and split it into parts, so you have a precise idea of what to do (which I seem it’s your problem here).

Idea. Have to study Math? then try to see it through Javascript. It’s a way to be more project-oriented. I usually make such hybridizations to keep the creative level of study.

Don’t forget the real world and its trends, don’t just run after it, be a creator, not just a user. Best luck (and ask the rubber duck)

PS Can I learn multiple things at the time??

(ahaha.)

School and uni basically ask this – why say it’s not.
So the idea of being able to make plans is just the one.

// I wish I learned this thing when I was in highschool.
// A guess-what’s-next scheduling was simply unsustainable to me.
// Had I the mind of deadlines and mid-term planning, I’d done better.

However you must get the idea of Transformation.
That is, we are meant to create and verify things.
If you create then you can modify.
And things go on this way.
Until the best product
That never ends

// Modern software releasing has taken this concept to the extreme
// “Agile methodology”, one/Two week cycles.
// If you stay behind, you’re out of the game.
// That’s also why docker kubernetes etc are the next must-know

So it’s not really a how many topics can you juggle with.
We’re not just ingesting concepts to show the smartest-me

Cooperation is people that enjoy problems and focus on them.
So a better way of learning (last part of my previous) is Problem-solving
Problem-solving and Transformation are roughly synonyms
However Transformation is more syn. to Innovation
It’s about focusing on a problem and split it in smaller parts

// Won’t you as programmer plan algorithms the chunk way??

Then know theory to join the parts together in harmony.
It’s good to memorize things to help the workflow.
Though, memorizing is not the point, you get it.
Sometimes Theory just can’t make things go
So you break your mind, and finally let it go.
One two days years after ! the Solution.
This is how strange Creativity works.
You can’t innovate on demand.
You can’t decide to lose.
Just love problems.
Problems first.
Good duck.
