How to deal with boredom as a programmer

One of the things that tend to make a lot of people back down from learning to code is boredom.
At a certain point in time ,you are going going to get bored and to be honest its a small part of every job .I don’t usually get bored that often when coding but I’ve seen others break down while learning the craft

So here is a quick walk through of how I deal with boredom

1. Understanding that you’re part of the problem

Boredom comes as a result of doing the same thing over and over again. As developers we need to find ways to make our job fun and joyful .For example you can take breaks.

2. Challenge your self .

Basically you have to look for things you haven’t done before and just work on them. These challenges can come in all shapes and sizes .Challenges help in polishing your skill and furthermore helps you to understand your skill and it capabilities .

3. Keep Learning more

Computer Science is a very big field and if we learn too little about it , we’ll miss out on all the new frameworks created and new tools .
We as developers need to be hungry for information and we need to keep our curiosity afloat .

Conclusion

If you are reading this , i guess you really want to improve your software development skills .
Don’t worry its what we’re all trying to do
and i hope this short readout helped you.
Good Luck .
