Title: I&#x27;ve found that the difference between me and great programmers I&#x27;ve come across in person or online is that they have extreme mental fortitude, get unstuck on their own, and pick up new things with breeze.<p>Whereas, I find myself going for almost academic perfection (i.e read all docs first) &#x2F; mastery. Really procrastinate hard when I hit the wall and just hope for things to click. And then just get sleepy when I do start reading code. This means if I&#x27;m in my space I&#x27;m super productive, but anytime I come across something I don&#x27;t have an expert level knowledge I come to complete halt.<p>It took me lot of self introspection to realize this, so if there are other pitfalls that you have come across let me know, I might have them too.
