Hability to handle uncertainty

The best people to work with are people that can handle uncertainty.

You provide tiny pieces of information and they are able to figure it out the rest.

When I’m working with my mentee they struggle a lot of it.

I prefer to provide the less possible information and let them fill the gaps.

As they are still learning some basics they struggle a lot.

They keep me asking “simple” questions.

I try to teach them to solve the “simple” questions by themselves using google,github,stackoverflow

And only come up to me after some struggle.

Struggle help them to learn better and to improve their understanding of what they are learning.
