What Happens When You Successfully Complete The Challenge

When you successfully complete the 21-day challenge...

What do you get when you successfully complete the challenge? A few things...

  1. Momentum. You'll have a streak of at least 21 days on your GitHub profile, which is pretty awesome. And you'll feel motivated to keep it up.
  2. Lots of new software. Work every day, and you'll have created new programs - totally awesome!
  3. Learning. You can't do this and not learn. I guarantee it, or your money back ;)
  4. Connections. Look at all the people contributing. These people are actively learning, and helping one another learn. They're the kind of people you want to become friends with...

That's all the inherently awesome stuff you get just from sticking with the program for 3 weeks. To sweeten things a little bit more, I've got the 3_heroes directory patiently waiting for the folks who complete the challenge. As of today, 0 people have completed it, so I'm not quite sure what it will be! At the very least, it's a list of all the people who have completed the challenge. Anyone can start anything, but it takes serious commitment to finish things. If you manage to stick it out, you deserve recognition.
