So, last Saturday we had our hangout as usual, and it was just so much fun we did not want it to end. We are currently on the second topic for this week, which is “THE RISKS WE TAKE”.

But before we proceed with the details of the topic, let us take a look at the winners of the last topic, which was “DIFFICULT TO GRASP”.

This topic was geared toward each member of the community telling us about the one thing that was difficult for them to learn and understand. From skills to courses in schools, or even life lessons. They told us about how learning such things took a toll on them.

We got to learn different opinions on this matter. We saw that some skills were easier to learn for some people than they were for others, and as such, it required extra learning periods. Some went on to master the skills, despite the hurdles, while others simply gave up due to how tough it was. Learning can be a tough nut to crack, but it’s something that will always pay off. It was an enlightening topic, indeed.

For this topic, we went through every entry post, and that is every post with the #hl-exclusive & #hl-w170e1 tag. And with the number of wonderful posts out there, it was quite difficult to make a selection. But eventually, we did just that. And so, the posts that will be featured not just for their exceptional content, but also for their level of engagement with other authors, will be listed below.

Featured Contents

IMPROVING MY DATABASE KNOWLEDGE by @gwajnberg

This author told us about how learning Graphql had been difficult for him. He had to learn it from scratch, something that was totally different from what he was used to. It pushed him to his limit, but it also made him secured the victory in the end. And soon, he eventually mastered the skill.

HOW PASSION FOR RETRO GAMING TAUGHT ME PERSEVERANCE by @manclar

For this author, he told us about his first foray into retro gaming and how he was determined to learn how to make it. However, he found it difficult to learn, and it took him years to get the hang of it. However, he did master the skill, and also went on to learn Pixel art, which was also a major challenge for him, but one that he mastered as well.

WHEN LEARNING FEELS LIKE CLIMBING A MOUNTAIN @vickoly

For this author, he told us about how learning to let go was the hardest thing for him to do. People he loved and trusted hurt him and showed that they didn’t care about him, but he hung on. However, he soon learned to face his weakness, and today, letting go is a bit easier for him.
