Hello I read your blog. My name is Aaron and I too am interested in being a coder and attending Lambda School. Right now I'm doing a pre course for Flatiron Academy. Feel a little lost and it's I feel like I'm just by myself and I read that part in your blog where you felt the same way once. Sometimes I'm a little embarrassed to ask for help. I'm at a point where I really don't understand a certain aspects of codeine and I am just going down a rabbit hole. Can you help me please!

Hi Aaron,

I'm so glad you were able to relate with my blog. Starting off as a developer can be quite daunting but one thing that helped me was to learn concepts bit by bit.

For example, watch various youtube videos & read blogs on a particular concept before proceeding to the next topic. Also, there's no shame in asking for help at all, we've all been there :)

Hey thank you so much for your reply. I will take your advice and I'm going to take it a little slow and not quit. And also take it bit by bit as you say I guess I was just diving into it and thought that I can retain so much information all at once but I can't. But I do love the challenge and I think I will make a really great developer one day. Thanks again for your encouragement and I hope that one day I can still ask questions when I need be
