Today I have realized something. I have realized some of my faults as a coder. I have decided to outline them because the first step to better yourself is to accept your faults.
1. I overlook some of the simpler solutions.
Why must I do every thing the complicated way instead of the easy way?!!
2. I'm too worried about getting it right the first time.
You know what? Sometimes it's better to just go ahead and do something and fail than wait forever for Jesus to come down and say, "Ok, this is how you do it right." From now on, I must work harder at being aggressive in my coding.
3. My coding is not aggressive enough
I wuss out and do things the simplest way. Which is great for making functional things, but I need to learn the higher code. I need to learn the language. Which is going to take a while considering this is an off project. But whatevs.
4. I need support to keep going.
I need support or inspiration to get aggressive with my coding. I start off with such gusto. I burn through 50% of the code in a week. The other 50% takes longer, whether it be for fine tuning, or because I am not putting the time into it. I need to feel like I am accomplishing something. I set milestones for myself, but they always seem beyond reach. But when I reach my milestone, I feel so powerful! I need company. The best thing to keep me on task is distractions, or something.
I don't know what else to put down so I'll leave it at that. And I'm getting back to work. Other coders like me, try to pull it together, get something done. Kthx

There's a difference between making things overcomplicated, and making things retardedly simple and keep doing it over and over again.

Keep it up Lugia! After reading this, I noticed a few of those things in myself. Perhaps I should just try and get something done. I accept your challenge and expect a great amount of pay for winnning your challenge, thanks Lugia!
honestly though, it's about time I do something. I'm going to create my first game! (It may not rock, but still!) |
"Why must I do every thing the complicated way instead of the easy way?!!" and then, "I wuss out and do things the simplest way."
ORLY?
