- Typing fast for programming
It's actually not that important to be able to type fast for programming. Absolutely, knowing where the keys are reliably helps, but more of the time is spent thinking about the structure of the code than actually typing. Therefore long sentences like these are uncommon outside of comments, and there are usually a lot of punctuation and bracket characters that can slow you down.

- Mechanical Keyboards
I just received my first mechanical keyboard and it is fantastic. Actually, it's not necessarily about typing faster for me, but having a silky and satisfying feeling when typing brings joy to my work. I can use a variety of switch types, from clicky to silky smooth, and I can also modify the keys to be more silent than my previous membrane switch keyboard.

- Progress
Progress is easy to lose track of. We see our goal and wonder why we are not there yet. But if you were a bystander watching over your own shoulder you would see remarkable improvements over time. Check in on yourself regularly to see how you are doing. Because over the course of a few minutes you may not see great change, but over days or months you will most certainly not be the same as you were before.
