Debugging
It was a struggle when I first started out trying to figure out how to debug some of the issues when creating my blog. I now understand the process. You have to read everything out loud and think what is it I need to find out to fix the problem. It takes a certain type of patience to do anything in CS.
I have started the course learning how to learn. This has started to get me to do some things between my lessons so I can use both the diffuse mode and the focus mode. I sometimes stop and play some chess and then go back to work. I want to try the falling alseep with something in my hand and then go right back to work when I wake up and see how I do.
Especially sense I am doing something brand new. I will have to use parts of my brain that I have never used before. I have not learned another language good sense english. I am proficient in Spanish but I learned that just from embracing myself in their culture while I was playing basketball.
I am playing on starting the learning how to learn book by Barbra Oakley on July 9th. I am excited about that as well. One of the reason I am excited is because I never really applied myself in school so I do not really know how to learn exactly. I did not do much trial and error while I was in school. I was just thinking how can I get this done and get a good great with the least effort.
It has carried over some to everything. I think this mentality is good when I am already in a place of understaning and/or I am in a managment type position and can deligate. It is not a good menality when I need to learn something new or work on something new.
I will work daily on this.
