Teach girls bravery, not perfection | Reshma Saujani - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Has feminist leanings, but EVERYONE should learn this lesson:
Coding is an endless cycle of trial and error, demanding perseverance and a willingness to embrace imperfection. Many students fear not getting it right. A common scene unfolds: a student stares at a blank screen, having deleted their previous attempts, afraid to show their progress. Some students come in and say, "Professor, there's something wrong with my code". Others express "Professor... there's something wrong with me." We must begin to undo the socialization of perfection - we must shift our mindset away from the pursuit of flawlessness. Tt's time to embrace imperfection, take risks and dare to learn from failure. By prioritizing resilience over the fear of not being enough, we create space for true progress.
