8, 11, 16, 29
1) The three behaviors I felt resonate the most in the article "29 Behaviors That Will Make You an Unstoppable Programmer" were all
based around the theme of Ego. Behavior #8 tells us to become comfortable with saying "I Don't Konw". To me, this is truely fundamental
when it comes to work and life, because there are too many different situations to truely know the answer to everything before trying a
solution. Being ok with not knowning the solution tends to gives one the freedom to make mistakes and use them for learning opportunities,
which is the idea behind Behavior #11. Along the same lines is behavior #16, this is being able to take outside criticism against one's
work. I believe it is crucial to be able to take critism to improve and become the best version of ourselves. In sports, the best players
tend to not only be extremely talented, but constantly learning and improving their game through listening to criticism.

2) I love the idea of using checklists as a student and programmer. I'v

1) What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?
I feel the biggest affect empathy has on my life is bringing me closer to those around me. Being able to understand what others are feeling
and put myself in their situation makes me a kinder human. I feel that empathy has helped me, because it is the foundation for understanding
others and being closer to them. Although, there are times where I haven't felt empathetic, which feels odd. It is difficult to understand
why that happens, but it may have something to do with protecting myself as suggested in the article "Three Kinds of Empathy"

2) How does empathy help you build better software?
Being empathetic to the user and how they may feel confused and/or lost in our software is crutial. Too often it seems that technical folks
tend to be un-empathetic to those that struggle to grasp concepts that are seen as easy to the technically minded. Being able to understand
the challenges and emotions of the people using the software can greatly i

Day 1

1. Did I run into any issues? yes, I had some issues with getting XCode and Homebrew setup correctly. I needed to update OS X from 10.9 to 10.12. Lots of negative comments in app store about these updates.. Also, my bash commands somehow got messed up. Somehow my PATH seems to have gotten really screwed up. I think it was when I was trying to modify the path to get Homebrew to get going. Found the correct PATHs on stackoverflow: export PATH="/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin" export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH" brew install ruby

2. Type atom into the terminal

3. .rb (for ruby)

4. cmd+/ or cmd+k+b, also cmd+shift+p is awesome

Where I am….
I see myself using my strengths nearly every day at Turing. Specifically, my self-assurance when I’m working on a project.
I feel like I put a heavy reliance on knowing that I can figure out a problem on my own and I have been able to teach myself
quite a few things by researching them myself. I feel like this ties into the learner aspect because the drive to learn is
what is pushing me through this experience. It is odd that relator is one of my strengths because I tend to feel shy in new 
groups, especially larger than a couple people. However, I see myself using it to build better relationships with specific 
people and getting closer to them. 
I feel like my understanding of these strengths has changed how I view myself, because it has allowed me to think more about 
what I am good at rather than what I am bad at and need to improve. It has allowed me to be unashamed about who I am and 
accept that I don’t need to be everything.

##### Challenge 1:
I needed to make each of the smaller divs as inline-blocks to keep their size consistent inside of a flex box. I created a big flex box container for all 3, then a smaller container for 2 & 3. The big container uses justify-content to space out the boxes.

##### Challenge 2:
Nested each block inside another div that was using display:block; and used align-text to get them in the right spot.
