Congratulations Steven Parker πŸ†

Having reached 200,000+ points is a truly spectacular achievement. I aspire to gain knowledge and experience as equal to you...... someday...

Here is your medal πŸ₯ˆ(You will get the gold one when you reach 300,000+) 😜

Thanks! I was a bit stunned to see that figure myself. But I must point out that isn't a knowledge rating but an activity indicator. Most of my points have come from forum participation (though I do learn from doing that as well).

And as much as I enjoy helping folks in the forum, I think this landmark might be a sign for me to spend a bit more time with other interests. Who knows, a new student success specialist might get hired. :smirk:

Would you mind giving me some golden advice? As a newbie, I often get de-motivated in pursuing programming skills.

I often picture myself being a master in computer skills but sometimes it kinda feels too abstract for me, and makes me anxious most of the time, also I have no programming background, I recently graduated in Electronics.

The challenges never stop, but experience will teach you to handle them more easily and with less anxiety.
