I help run a makerspace. It's amazing when a newbie comes in and shows some enthusiasm. They often get swept up by an expert or 2. They tend to leave slightly dazed, but happy. Those that start coming regularly gain skills rapidly. Often they are the ones that swoop in to help the next newbie who turns up nervous and unsure.

I love that. That positive energy continues moving forward.
