Don the Developer Changed My Coding Bootcamp Mindset

In this video, I recap the talk I had with ‪@DonTheDeveloper‬ a couple weeks ago. I got a lot of valuable takeaways from my talk with him and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to sit down and hear his point of view. I'm sure you'll get a lot of value from this so make sure you watch until the end - in my opinion his last piece of advice is the most valuable.

You got this!

Lets say you attend codesmith where they are coding 24/7 at this point.. What time are you going to fill in the inefficiencies ... if you suggest not to wait and do it as they come up..

[@ColbyJaxCodes]

Hmm… I’m not sure I understand. I wasn’t able to find anything alluding to code smith being 24/7. Looks like they offer full time or part time programs. So much changes every week or two for me in bootcamp! At this point, I am coming across some things I want to address additionally. Node.JS has been really cool to learn. I wouldn’t say that there are deficiencies in the program at this point, just that I’m interested in learning it beyond the level I probably will through bootcamp. With that in mind, I’m making a bit of a note in my head to take some additional courses on node.JS after bootcamp finishes to dive deeper. Ultimately you have to balance between putting your mental resources toward learning the day-to-day material in your bootcamp and supplementing any deficiencies you come upon along the way. So far there hasn’t been much on my way, the only thing I would say is you can’t prepare by self studying or practice what you’re learning too much. Focus on that and you will be successful.

What bootcamp did you go to?

Yes, what bootcamp?

Hey! I missed this originally sorry for the slow response. I'm currently attending General Assembly's part time SWE immersive class. You can watch some of my newer videos to hear more about that if you'd like.
