I'm learning to trust MLS more and more. Sometimes I'll have thoughts and feelings pop up that are a bit foreign. Rather than look at them distrustingly, I've been allowing them to guide me. This has resulted in ideas and new ways of looking at things that are much better for me. The effects of MLS are often so subtle that I don't realize it's working so rather than look for results, as long as my speakers are set up properly I just have faith in the program.
My programming journey is still ongoing. Some days I'm just completely out of it. Regardless I've found myself logging on and completing just one coding challenge, if I can't do anything else. I'm keeping a steady streak of logging on daily, regardless of how much I do. This will pay big as it makes sure my progress is consistent. Also it's much easier to do more challenges after you beat the inertia of doing the first one.
Mostly I'm learning to be patient because I have a to-do list that I can't possibly accomplish in a week or two. Some of the things that I want to learn aren't simply a matter of learning, I have to make lifestyle changes, adopt new beliefs and form new identities. I'm realizing that I can't possibly exceed myself and trying is stupid. Trying to do more than I possibly can (within a reasonable limit) just fuels a poor self-perception, which is detrimental to learning.
