I just loved reading this, Gedalya, I need to print this and put it on my wall to help!! My favorite ones were "Painting the Whys" and "Screenshotting Encouragement." I have a hard time staying motivated because I just settle for the way things are and have been done. I need to have an important "WHY?" to keep me going, and I also need validation a lot so saving those forms of praises is such a great idea, for all aspects of life even! Amazing how such little things help!!

Thanks for sharing Linnea. Yea, it is surprising how easy it is to downplay our own worth and accomplishments. I'm so glad you found these helpful.

I know firsthand how good your work is, as I have gotten the opportunity to collab on a few projects with you. Each time demonstrated clearly that you are talented at coding and are determined to really figure out issues as they come up. It genuinely makes it an easy choice to collaborate with you.

(Boom, something to start off your screenshots. 😉)
