I used these elements and specified these styles to make this thing happen. I chose to use white text color because you can't see it if it's black. (duh). (When you write this make your actual description more meaningful...)

Developing Mindsets to Succeed
-
Pick out 3 behaviors that resonate with you in the list and describe why they resonate with you in a reflection (4-6 sentences).
-
Use google very aggressively.
I feel that this is key. I am still learning how to google better. I am improving my googling. There was a link in this area that went to an article that said to open the first ten links that come up on your google search and read them. I have found that helpful already. -
- Maintain an obnoxious amount of stick-to-itiveness.
This is another very important skill. I am working on the balance between stick to-it and too-much-frustration. I feel that if I am persistent with my study of coding, I will be successful.
- Maintain an obnoxious amount of stick-to-itiveness.

Developing Empathetic Programmers
##Developing Empathetic Programmers ###After reading the articles above, create a gist on Github and reflect (4-6 sentences) on the following prompts.
-What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?
Empathy has played an important role in my previous career as a firefighter and paramedic. As a firefighter, while we did work as a team in stressful situations, we also lived together for 24 hour shifts in the firehouse. Listening to my coworkers and having empathy for them on tough days made it a better place to work. I think that I feel better about my actions when I act with empathy in mind.
-How does empathy help you build better software?
