Grateful for the opportunity to be a panelist at today's Becoming TECH Part I, where I engaged with current and prospective Flatiron School students. The discussion centered around cultivating a tech-oriented mindset and embracing a growth mindset. Reflecting on my journey as a Software Engineer and my passion for lifelong learning, I was truly delighted to share my experiences and give tips on thinking tech. The conversation's essence was beautifully encapsulated by Angela Duckworth's concept of 'Grit' — the remarkable combination of passion and perseverance. Key Takeaways: Mastering Persistence: Embracing challenges with unwavering persistence is crucial in the dynamic field of technology. It's about facing obstacles head-on and persevering until you achieve your goals. Celebrating Small Wins: Acknowledging and celebrating the small victories along the way is essential. Each step forward, no matter how small, contributes to the larger journey. Always Remember the Big Picture: Amidst the day-to-day tasks and challenges, it's vital to keep sight of the big picture. Understanding the broader impact of your work adds depth and purpose to your journey. Thank you Flatiron School, Michelle Pathe, Sarah Lowing, Louise Strickland, MSEd, Emily Elliot-Meisel, and Patricia Rodriguez.
