Great one, Debra!
I can relate to how you feel 🙂
I feel that "Can I do this?" too, especially when I realize that some of people that I know start from the same phase are way ahead than me. It's just frustrating.

Until I finally accepted that people journeys are different. Also this is a marathon and not a sprint.
Once there was said in VC "Comparing (yourself and other people) steals the joy!"
And that's so true!

So from now ahead, let's enjoy the ride to reach there! 😊

Thanks so much Ayu! It's really comforting knowing that other very new devs feel the same way and that I'm not alone 🙏🏾. Sometimes it's discouraging and frustrating when I don't understand many concepts yet, but I always try to get back up 😌.

Let's do this! 👊🏾
