Hi all,
When learning a new language, one can come face to face with impostor syndrome. The chances are even more when you’re learning the new language alone.
Recently, I wrote an article that talks about a journey that started with an intention to better understand some of the concepts in Elixir via learning by doing and it takes one through the roadblocks I faced along the way and how I found ways of getting unstuck that lead me to reflect about things beyond Impostor Syndrome and how the overall learning experience helped me to be a better programmer in general.
This blog also highlights how one can find collaborative ways of learning, leaving you with the realisation that there are more exciting ways of learning a new language even when you’re actually learning it by yourself. I bumped into roadblocks while solving the Sublist exercise on Exercism.io and this blog talks about how I found work arounds to overcome those roadblocks by reading the conversations around other’s solution of the same problem on Exercism and how that led me to the realisation that my learning was still collaborative and fun!.
The article that talks about this journey in more detail - https://codeburst.io/the-journey-of-solving-an-elixir-exercise-on-exercism-and-how-that-led-me-to-look-beyond-the-98fb9d7ae298
Any feedback is greatly appreciated 
Thank you for your time.
