<h4>Confusion is your friend!</h4>
<p>
When you start programming your first web app you are doing something
that you have never done before. It's a new challenge, a new
opportunity, and in the case of software development, something so
specific that it's probably never been done before.
</p>

<p>
Confusion, therefore, is a sign that you are heading in the right
direction. It's a signal that you have engaged in the problem solving
pursuit that is math and technology and that it's time for you to dig
deeper and keep going because clarity awaits.
</p>

<h4>Suspended disbelief plays an important role.</h4>
<p>
When you are learning a new technology, whether you are learning to
write your first programming language, or just the latest framework,
you go through this uncomfortable phase where you know that the code
you are looking at is doing this THING but you don't understand HOW
exactly it's happening.
</p>

<p>
This is a normal part of the process of learning a new technology, and
in fact, it's a critical part of the process.
</p>

<p>
You see when you encounter a new programming language part of your
learning process includes learning to train your eye. The way to train
your eye is to read a good deal of code even when you don't totally
understand what it's doing.
