You stay intrinsically motivated - Coding can be a difficult task. Not only are you constantly solving problems and adapting to new changes, but you're also missing code, memorizing company protocols, and falling back on fixing your mistakes.

You enjoy puzzles and strategy - Coding is about putting the pieces of a puzzle together - creating a new program or solving problems from an old one. Writing new code often means writing, testing, and then modifying. There are often many moving pieces.
