I haven't posted in a little while. Feeling frustrated with my brain not clicking on Harvard CS50x pSet 2. Imagine, I have 11 assignments more. Maybe I'm about to have a big break through. Starting to negatively self talk. "Only smart people can do this", "Why are you learning this anyway, it's just a distraction … Continue reading Brain Barriers

Trying to setup github repository. Can't even read through the instructions to setup the CS50 lab. Feeling frustrated. Listened to a podcast today where Michael Phelps was interviewed.
