Ask HN: How do I overcome mental laziness? 477 by fickleycurious | 225 comments on Hacker News. I have realized that I easily give up when I face a hard problem. This is hurting my career prospects. I have been thinking and it may have become an issue because I grew up in a high pressure environment, where a lot is expected from you. How do I change myself ? I have observed that a lot of times I have a vague idea of a problem I am trying to solve but I don't put in the effort to nail it down. This affects my confidence and I don't want to lead whenever I get an opportunity. How do I get out of this habit ?

I know there are blind software engineers out there. My main questions are: - Are there blind frontend engineers? - What kinds of software engineering lend themselves to someone with limited vision? Backend only? - Besides a screen reader, what are some of the best tools for building software with limited vision? - Does your company employ blind engineers? How well does it work? What kind of engineer are they? I'm really ...
