Solving tough tickets is like lifting heavy weights for your brain. When you tackle code reuse and dive deep into the core of a problem, you're not just fixing bugs—you're rewiring your neural pathways. It's a mental workout that sharpens your ability to think systematically, spot patterns, and build durable solutions. Think of it like a plumber handling a complex leak—messy, intricate, but deeply satisfying when fixed. This kind of problem-solving builds credibility as an engineer who can go beyond surface fixes and address the root cause. The more you take on these challenges, the stronger and more valuable your engineering "muscle" becomes.

@danielhamam All of that is fake dopamine, better to just do something with 0 knowledge behind it instead of being taught something that you'll literally forget in 5 seconds.

@danielhamam Actually the key to success is being able to pick a movie to watch with the homies in under 10 minutes

In my humble experience, I used to struggle with learning because I aimed for perfection. But the truth is, perfection gets you nowhere. Efficiency is what leads to steady progress over time. Perfection = Learning Nothing Efficiency = Steady Progress Shift how you look at time and focus on consistency: make some progress every day. It doesn’t have to be the same amount everyday, just something. Deadlines are real, and pressure can create diamonds. But when you're stuck, remove stress and break it down: Step by step—what do you need to do or learn? Don’t even know where to start? Ask ChatGPT for an essential Table of Contents on your topic, and follow it step by step. I don’t know if you feel like you have the same problem but I was just sharing my own personal experience with the same problem. Hope it helps out / gives some perspective.

@danielhamam Haha I knew it before I even read the bottom part. Great show, I’ve been itching to rewatch it recently.
