Should I accept challenges? Sadly, I don't feel confident enough to participate in the Callenge parts of this course.😐

Question

Needing advice for beginners that are nervous of taking risks and fear of embarrassment trying to move forward from that. Accepting challenges is good for practice and learning. It helps the learner make progress by realizing their mistakes. I've had many bouts with myself regarding this and still only participated in one Challenge that I failed miserably with and that screwed with my moral. So I can only imagine how others who see "these challenges as a challenge and barely get their feet off the ground.

Answer 1

At start when I loose I get Little bit angry not on opponent But on "Myself " but these things happens with all and teaches us . Because when you fall only then you have the chance to rise . Keep challenging 👍👍

Answer 2

just be confident and dont afraid of loosing because every coin has two side one is win and other is lost so just focus on learning new things which would help you to beCNNome a good programmer all the best

Answer 10

You will never get some experience of competition if you don't Challenge, never mind losing, I was one of the greatest losers in the beginning.
Don't trust me, check my C++ Challenges, that was my first language...
Lost almost all.
And as for now, I am sending you one, accept it.

Answer 11

Thanks Michelle, I understand... I think I'm 'afraidy cat', but too afraid to admit I'm a dore loser. Haha ha😂😂😂

Answer 12

Yes Ahmed. I completely agree, and Yes, you have been the Victor in All of our challenges. 😁😁😁 I am only now beginning to feel that Failure IS an option, but it is definitely, not the ending. In fact, it is the very best way to begin to realize where I am lacking, which is i n so many areas, where my mistakes are and what I need to study.
I must say thank you to everyone ehi has helped me thus far! ❤❤❤

Answer 13

the best way to improve on these challenges is to take the course of that topic you pick to challenge & be challenged. I have had little idea about web development and I came here to advance my knowledge, so the first thing I did was to take the courses one after the other, study them very well over and over again and also do the question practices of each topic in each course , thereafter I went ahead to take on someone on a challenge and I won my first and lost the next two challenges, then I continued till I get most of all the questions both the ones I failed and passed. after that, I went back to the course to study all over again to note were the questions of the challenges were coming from and know the correct answers... well, I won't say its totally different but I have gained more than how I started to the extent that I have won several flawless challenges even with Challengers @Level 16.. and also lose woefully in some but very few tho.... now I boldly accept challenges with the aim of winning even if I lose at the end, I will rematch... I'm sure you're (Linda) my proof because we do go on a challenge together and I can boldly say I win most of all our challenges tho. lol
