WEBVTT 0 00:00.830 --> 00:06.110 Hey, it's Angela again and I'm here to congratulate you on coming 1 00:06.110 --> 00:07.990 really really far in the course. 2 00:08.180 --> 00:11.310 Not everybody gets to see these videos that you're watching. 3 00:11.330 --> 00:17.990 And just in terms of your perseverance and the level of dedication that you have to be able to reach 4 00:17.990 --> 00:19.870 here, it's fantastic, 5 00:19.910 --> 00:22.670 and it really sets you apart from other people. 6 00:22.700 --> 00:24.250 So congratulations. 7 00:24.290 --> 00:25.500 You deserve a back. 8 00:25.520 --> 00:27.540 You deserve a pat on the back. 9 00:27.620 --> 00:34.370 Now I also want to talk about something that I've heard a lot of students say when they reach around 10 00:34.370 --> 00:40.820 this kind of time point, where they say like, "Oh, you know, even though I've been going on and learning 11 00:40.820 --> 00:49.580 for so long, I've done like a 100 days, one hour a day, and I still feel like I don't know anything, I don't 12 00:49.580 --> 00:50.840 know everything.". 13 00:50.840 --> 00:54.530 And, firstly, nobody knows everything. 14 00:54.770 --> 01:00.110 Even if you just take something as simple as like one particular technology, there's too many things 15 01:00.110 --> 01:00.460 to know. 16 01:00.470 --> 01:04.970 You only learn the things that are relevant to what it is that you're trying to achieve, 17 01:05.990 --> 01:14.360 now aside from the fundamental skills of course. So the thing I tend to tell students is, you've actually 18 01:14.360 --> 01:24.200 made huge leaps in terms of where you were before but it's just that as you keep getting more advanced 19 01:24.200 --> 01:30.650 and there's more advanced topics coming up around you your level of struggle seems to be kind of constant, 20 01:30.650 --> 01:30.890 right? 21 01:30.890 --> 01:36.570 It doesn't ever really get easier and I can testify to that like even at my level, 22 01:36.590 --> 01:40.460 there are still loads of things that really are mind boggling. 23 01:40.460 --> 01:48.620 I sit there thinking like "Oh, I wish I was smart and I could just understand this immediately". But this 24 01:48.620 --> 01:50.240 is just, it's fantasy. 25 01:50.240 --> 01:55.460 We all have to work hard in order to get what we actually end up with, our results. 26 01:55.460 --> 02:04.340 So what I want you to do, whenever you feel like "I've done so much work and yet I don't, I can't, I don't 27 02:04.340 --> 02:09.920 feel like I know everything yet" is to go to the early parts of the course, 28 02:09.920 --> 02:15.430 have a look at the questions that the students who are just starting out, you know, maybe in the first second 29 02:15.430 --> 02:23.510 and third modules, see what questions they're asking and see how easy it is for you to answer those questions 30 02:23.930 --> 02:25.790 because of where you are now. 31 02:25.880 --> 02:32.300 Those struggles that they have and you probably had at one point as well are so much easier for you 32 02:32.300 --> 02:37.120 to be able to understand. And you can see at a glance like "Oh yeah, that's totally because of this, 33 02:37.130 --> 02:46.240 because of that". And just by answering some of these student questions, the people who are at an 34 02:46.250 --> 02:56.390 earlier stage, you actually feel like you've gone further and you know you have achieved a lot since 35 02:56.480 --> 02:57.660 when you first started. 36 02:57.740 --> 02:59.100 So try it out. 37 02:59.180 --> 03:00.410 Let me know how it goes. 38 03:00.470 --> 03:07.010 And I hope you will keep going and that you will achieve your potential. 39 03:07.010 --> 03:08.180 So keep going.
