Absolutely great points! Agree!

The biggest steps forward in dev career usually come when you can tolerate some pain. Staying only within the safe boundaries often doesn't make progress happens. Bugs, typos and problems are the 'walls' that are there to guide forward. Greet these with gratitude! It's funny how being too devoid of trouble actually is the false safe place. Most stressfull moments can be when there's a lot of simultaneous new things, but it'll eventually make sense and settle.
