Career Development
Maintaining a Stick to it-ivness, Code is cheap, always review your own work first. After getting down and starting something, I usually feel like I can keep going for hours. I'd like to think that I can maintain a "stick to it" attitude throughout everything, especially with learning new things that I can implement. Thinking back to stuff in high school, it was hard for me to completelty get rid of something. I always would think that I'm getting closer to solving the problem or something like that and I coudlnt just throw it away after all of the work that I had done. It'll be interesting and hopefully kinda fun to get out of that habit and just go with the coding flow. I was always told to review everything first in math, english, really everywhere so it shouldnt be much different for coding or anything else in life. Just making sure it's as perfect as I'd like it before I show it off.
Checklists It'd be great especially when you're trying to establish a routine at first. Having a sense that you can know what you should be doing to better yourself as a developer and student. I think it'd help feel a little bit more comfortable for students to have that to go through every day. Maybe feel like even if you're diving into a new language or framework that you're a little wary of, you have that consistent thing that will help you improve. It would most certainly help with your career. I'm sure going over your own code at the end of your project would be a good thing to have on your end checklist
