Each time someone encounters a technical challenge if they run away from it, they becomes an expert at fleeing rather than at problem solving. We need to develop perseverance, the stills to device solutions, and the will to ask for help and collaborate.

Ran into issues with a task late last night. Slept over it, with hopes for this morning.
It took a dark turn, however. Listened to some hallucinations, edited Perl scripts, installed Python packages, and used a few shell commands, to finally get exactly what I wanted. Phew.
