I stopped after loosing around 100 points and started to think 'Why am i loosing now and why i am not improving beyond a point'. The answer to that question is a blog which found me.</p> <div class="highlight js-code-highlight"> <pre class="highlight plaintext"><code> Dr Gregg Steinberg is a performance psychologist and in his blog, he is advocating for 'sticking to the basics' and how it helped successful people like Thomas Friedman and Tony Gwynn. This reminded me of an interview with AB de Villiers, a cricketing legend and we was backing the importance of reminding oneself the basics as you will forget it when you get into the complexities of game. I Tried it. I refreshed all basics and played couple of rapids. This time i was more aware and ended up winning three and losing two. Not a great result but now i started to see lot of connections. This time I moved every piece with an intent and now i can see the mistakes more clearly. </code></pre> </div> <p>So what can Coders learn from this--- Never forget the basics. </p> arjun-git-dotcom Fri, 21 Jun 2024 18:25:01 +0000 https://dev.to/arjungitdotcom/secret-to-code-better-175h https://dev.to/arjungitdotcom/secret-to-code-better-175h <p>So yes, today i have found something which is super interesting.It has worked for me today and possibly for you too. We all know that sitting in one stretch is a pain and more importantly unproductive,so we all take breaks.So the next time you take a break please be sure to drink water.Today i worked for four productive hours and the reason is i drank water in regular intervals.I found myself more refreshed and was able to woek seamlessly.It may be a simple thing but if you can implement this as part of your work routine,i guarantee positive results.Happy coding!!!</p> productivity learning coding
