Today I have nothing to do

I don't have_ class today_, but I wanted to review the flowchart model.

I have my first Javascript lesson on Monday and I'm excited.

Because I know it's a complex and precise language, so the harder the challenge gets and the problems start to increase.

On the other hand, this is our job... Solve problems that in the long run are attractive solutions for customers.

But (as always there are buts in between...) now we have to have fun because the hard work will come
and I'll have to be ready and come mentally prepared.

How do you guys get ready to know something new?

Get your peeks out below in the comments I'm curious.

I wouldn't think too hard about getting ready, especially when you are starting out. Showing up with a rested and open curious mind is the most important thing you can do. Consistency is everything here. Show up for your lessons, learn, ask questions when you are stuck, rest and repeat.

It's good advice, but I hear a lot about 20'80, that is, 80% practice and 20% theory... After all, this is work you absorb through practice, right?

Yes correct, practice. I am sure your lessons will introduce mini-projects to practice on.
