Patience and Hope
I don't know what it really is but when i read the count of Monte cristo there was a line that goes "The human intelligence is compressed in these two words - Patience and Hope". As I was reading it, it didn't hit me like it does today. That's why I am writing about it.
I really like working on problems that can be used right away by me or someone else. Maybe that made me work on trivial problems because I always want the reward loop to be narrow. Maybe that's good or maybe it's worse, I don't know.
Why am I saying I don't know often. Maybe it's because i am afraid to admit that I might be wrong about what i said. but the reality is i say that often and I don't think it's good.
Anyways let's get back to what i was saying before. Me, My personal projects and patience. The thing that really frightens me is the idea of knowing what you are doing and knowing what it will become. i think there is a way to know both but now it's difficult for me. I feel like what i am writing is vague.
Let's do it this way. My current personal project is BDU-SIMS-API. Okay, so API is something a software engineer must know which i am ๐๐. yeah thats good one step in the right direction. The next step is learning what an API is. This is where my fear comes.
On one side, I have to know what i am doing. what is an api? how can i build one? how do i know each and every in and out when building an api? by the way they can be built in different languages, python django , JavaScript node and express, this is what i know now but there are a lot of others. On the other side, I have the whole complete project in my mind. An api which lets bdu students get their course list, grades and their status without the UI. I want this because i can use this project as a base and build a telegram bot, a mobile app and other good projects. See, now my hope, my vision kills my patience.
I don't want to learn the basics, I want to build the project right now.
So i chose JavaScript coz its the holy language these days and since i dont have a database. (this means i will be scrapping the data from a website specifically our SIMS website and there is a library called puppeteer to scrape a webpage and the whole thing can be deployed easily as my small research says).
I can do a simple user adding, deleting, editing api to learn the basics. that might be good. but i didn't do it. why? coz i don't have the patience to learn the basics and then implement that in my personal project - the sims-api. and why is that ?because it will make the reward loop wider and that makes it boring for me to keep the momentum. I want to do something and see the result right away.
We came back to my ultimate fear. knowing what you are doing which will happen if i do know the basics and then use that knowledge to do my personal projects. and the other one knowing what the result is which will be the whole project done from scratch.
I feel like my patience and hope are fighting. my hope kills my patience in paragraph six. But people say there is no right way, only your way. Maybe it's my way to learn.

One of my homies said that what makes a personality yours is not the fact that you came up with it or that you have enough edits to make that trait your own , but like the fact that you chose it.
Thats a pov i wasn't thinking about.

It is a mistake to think time is going. Time is not going anywhere It is you that is going through time. You canโt waste time. Time is infinite. You waste yourself.
So make better use of it. And one of the worst things you can do with your time is comparing yourself to others. Just like a cow eats grass and gets bigger but if dog eats it, it could die form it. What may work for one person might be the thing which would kill you. Never compare yourself with others. Run your race. Focus on your gifts and talents. And do not be envious of the blessings of others.

always:
try {
your best and;
do {
what you need to do;
} while (you still have the time);
for (opportunity; comes; only once) {
so grab the chance;
}
if (you fail) throw "all your worries";
} catch (yourself) {
everytime you fall;
and you know to whom
you should goto always;
