Don't let a bad day distract you
Hi,
Whatever it is you’re doing - like learning a new programming language, leading an important project at work, learning to play the guitar - there will always be moments when you have to take a step back. Moments when it seems you’re in a downward spiral, when everything seems pointless.
It is in those moments that you need to remember where you came from. That you need to take a step back and look at the uphill climb. Don’t let a bad day distract you from all the progress you’ve made.
Some interesting things that crossed my path this week:
🎬 It is war, but no one sees it. While you’re going about your daily life, our police force moves mountains to combat cyber threats. This talk (in Dutch) gives an interesting introduction to the world of cybersecurity.
⚡️ Operation Volt expanded on the topic of cybersecurity with talks ranging from cybercrime stories with Hollywood-like action to more technical explorations. Sadly, there are no recordings to watch, so be sure to keep an eye out for next year’s event.
💬 I was interviewed about the world of IT in my city and about CoderDojo.
#️⃣ Too bad when your sink is blocked and you have a pile of dishes to do. Oh well…
That’s it for this week. Thanks for reading!
