Great story Joma, I think this rings true for a lot of people who initially did very well in school. I can certainly relate that those first failures hit harder than most.

@giovanni_monti

Nice man! Like the gift that you made! :D When you win, your entire team wins, love it!

@sentientAl

I also struggle with committing to a growth mindset not a fixed one. Thank you for bringing this up and sharing your own experience with handling feedback

Just sitting in DMV ana one lady sitting next to me saw me watching this episode and she was like " ooooh your his fan too " I was like no am his biggest follower.

@kennethledezma1640

As someone who managed to get through life as an A honor student only to get knocked down when it came to college i can attest to everything you said Joma, and I've honestly never heard it from anyone else the way i heard it from you so thank you for that. Im still going at it, and i hope one day I'll meet you as a fellow software engineer

This is a new way to show that the video is sponsored LOL

@thebigpicture7095

Great video, self-improvement is so powerful. Very inspiring how you stepped out of your comfort zone.

@Distortionist

It's nice that you talk about more serious topics every once in a while. 

Anyways, when are we getting more sexy coding and more startup?

@WillakeMattis

Starting my first job in a week so your videos are even more interesting :D keep it up in a great work, gonna watch this one now, peace.

@boostftw123

Everyone who works at the big tech companies here in the valley should watch this video, especially the privileged folks (ivy leagues) from the east coast

@rubabzahber5990

Feeling really lucky to be a young cs undergrad entering the workforce soon and having a access to all this high quality software engineering content
 and life advice. Really love how you fit some actually valuable life lessons in the middle of the memes so my tiny gen X attention span holds : )

@gs6827

Can definitely relate, great video, super nice of you getting the iPhone as well
