Learning something new is hard. It's even more challenging if you have a hard time trying to find motivation. How can we find things in our everyday lives that can help us learn?
学习新东西很难。 如果您很难找到动力，那就更具挑战性。 我们如何在日常生活中找到可以帮助我们学习的东西？
汤姆已不在您的扩展网络中 (Tom is no longer in your extended network)
It's been almost 10 years since we saw massive changes underway at MySpace. If you don't remember what MySpace was, it was the popular social network before Facebook was king (though technically it still exists).
自从我们看到MySpace正在进行大规模变革以来，已经过去了将近10年。 如果您不记得MySpace是什么，那它是在Facebook成为国王之前流行的社交网络(尽管从技术上讲它仍然存在)。
This was when everyone started with a new friend named Tom who was the co-founder of MySpace. Everyone could set their own "top 8" that could make or break the best friendships if you snubbed someone.
那时，每个人都从一个名为Tom的新朋友开始，他是MySpace的共同创始人。 每个人都可以设置自己的“前8名”，如果您冷漠某个人，这可能会建立或破坏最好的友谊。
You could also set a song for your profile which would be added as a little player, back when it was “okay” to automatically play a song when your page loaded.
您还可以为个人资料设置一首歌曲，该歌曲将作为小播放器添加(如果还可以)，当页面加载时自动播放一首歌曲。
But MySpace is now a thing of the past, so why am I talking about it?
但是MySpace现在已成为过去，那么我为什么要谈论它呢？
打造MySpace，成为您的空间 (Making MySpace, your space)
MySpace had a unique characteristic about it that you don't see in any of the popular social networks these days – it allowed you to add HTML and CSS into the page so that you could really do whatever you wanted with the your profile.
MySpace拥有一个独特的特性，这是您如今在任何流行的社交网络中都看不到的–它使您可以将HTML和CSS添加到页面中，以便您可以真正使用自己的个人资料进行任何操作。
Though from a simplistic perspective, this gives you some limited options. Maybe you can add some CSS that updates how the headers look and change a background color.
尽管从简单的角度来看，这为您提供了一些有限的选择。 也许您可以添加一些CSS，以更新标题的外观并更改背景颜色。
But realistically, this opened the door to adding full webpages that you could overlay on top of your profile by positioning your new layout above the original content with some z-indexing.
但实际上，这为添加完整的网页打开了一扇门，您可以通过将新的布局通过一些z-indexing放置在原始内容上方来覆盖您的个人资料。
The trick was, you had a limited amount of characters that you could put in each input. That had limitations, but these limitations helped promote creativity whether it was figuring out how to strip all of the whitespace in the code or by figuring out a way to add something with less overall code.
诀窍是，每个输入中可以输入的字符数量有限。 那是有局限性的，但是这些局限性有助于提高创造力，无论是想办法剥离代码中的所有空白，还是想出一种方法来添加总体代码较少的东西。
通过兴趣学习 (Learning through hobbies)
Building MySpace profiles was addicting! It was a social medium that you could customize to make your own and stamp your name on it to show everyone what you did.
建立MySpace个人资料令人上瘾！ 您可以自定义社交媒体，制作自己的社交媒体，并在上面加上自己的名字，以向所有人展示您的所作所为。
While you could do the same with your own website, it wasn't as easy at the time. And building out a profile on MySpace was easy, free, and you could connect with all of your friends.
虽然您可以使用自己的网站进行相同的操作，但当时并不容易。 在MySpace上建立个人资料非常容易，免费，而且您可以与所有朋友联系。
Each time I made a new page, I tried to think about what else I could do. I was even involved with small communities where we would share our work and help each other figure out how to hack things into a profile page (shoutout DM!).
每次制作新页面时，我都会尝试考虑我还能做些什么。 我什至参与了小型社区的交流，我们将在这些社区中共享我们的工作，并互相帮助找出如何将内容入侵到个人资料页面(大声疾呼DM！)。
This whole time, as I was trying to learn what more I could customize, I was learning how to code! I learned about how I could squeeze every inch of HTML I could out of a document and I also developed an understanding of how CSS selectors worked. I also learned how positioning allowed me to do cool things on the page and how to center things back when we didn’t have the option to flexbox all the things.
在整个过程中，当我尝试学习更多可以自定义的内容时，我正在学习如何编写代码！ 我了解了如何从文档中挤出每一英寸HTML，还了解了CSS选择器的工作原理。 我还学习了定位如何使我能够在页面上完成一些很酷的事情，以及当我们无法选择对所有内容进行弹性包装时如何使它们居中。
And this led to “business Colby” developing a sense of entrepreneurship. At this point, I was still in high school, but I was able to spin off a little business from building these pages.
这导致“企业Colby”发展出企业家意识。 此时，我还在读高中，但是我能够从创建这些页面中剥离一些业务。
While a modest $50 per profile seems low, that's a lot for a highschooler in 2004, not to mention that was a lot of money for another highschooler to pay to get one created!
虽然每个配置文件的适度$ 50似乎很低，但是对于2004年的一个高中生来说，这是一笔不小的数目，更不用说这是另一位高中生为创建一个而付出的巨额钱！
But this was the start of my code journey. Building off of MySpace, I started creating actual websites for Counter-Strike teams (CAL anyone?) and bands which would ultimately lead me to make a career out of coding.
但这是我代码之旅的开始。 在MySpace的基础上，我开始为Counter-Strike团队(可以叫CAL吗？)和乐队创建实际的网站，最终使我从事编码工作。
把爱好变成工作 (Turning hobbies into jobs)
I've heard others with a similar story, even others who similarly started with MySpace that eventually turned their interest into a coding career. While the MySpace era is something we all look back and laugh at, it really inspired a lot of people to find what they love to do.
我听过其他人也有类似的故事，甚至其他以MySpace开始的人也最终将他们的兴趣变成了编码职业。 尽管MySpace时代是我们大家回首和嘲笑的东西，但它的确激发了许多人找到他们喜欢做的事。
Finding this kind of inspiration can be important to discovering how you want to spend your time. Whether it's a hobby or learning on the side to turn it into a career, keeping engaged with something you're actually interested in is important to learning a new craft.
找到这种灵感对于发现自己想如何度过时光很重要。 无论是业余爱好还是在侧面学习将其转变为职业，保持与您真正感兴趣的事物的接触对于学习新Craft.io都很重要。
But it's important to pay attention to how you engage with that new interest. You don't want to force it into a career and quickly burn yourself out. That will lead to regret and resentment.
但重要的是要注意您如何与新兴趣互动。 您不想强迫自己进入职业并很快就筋疲力尽。 这将导致遗憾和不满。
While I got lucky that my interest in coding ended up turning into my career, I make sure to not "take my work home" as it's important to separate the work from your personal interests like random OSS projects on the side.
虽然我很幸运我对编码的兴趣最终变成了我的职业，但我确保不要“把工作带回家”，因为将工作与个人兴趣区分开来很重要，例如随机的 OSS项目 。
找到激发你动力的因素 (Find what motivates you)
The important thing is to find something that can motivate and inspire you to develop your passion whether for a career or hobby. Each of us have our own journey, whether code related or not, and we should try to find something that will make us happy.
重要的是要找到可以激发和激发您发展事业或爱好的激情的东西。 我们每个人都有自己的旅程，无论是否与代码相关，我们都应该尝试找到能让我们感到高兴的东西。
