Failure is part of the learning process! Learn from the mistakes and keep forging ahead. Though it may be cliche, it rings true that you learn more from the failures than you do the successes. Let the failures drive you forward to success!

Take advantage of online resources.

The internet is full of helpful tips and tricks for someone learning to code! If you find yourself stuck, a quick online search may be all you need to find a solution.

When you get discouraged remember that you are learning something brand new and this takes time! You will get the hang of it, just as you have with other new skills.

Be proud of yourself for taking the leap to dive into something new! Keep looking ahead at the successes your new skills will bring!
