I really enjoyed reading about the inspiring women in the world of kendo. Their dedication and passion are truly motivating, and it’s amazing to see how they’ve influenced the global kendo community. In a way, this reminds me of system design interview questions—both require a deep level of discipline, focus, and mastery. Just like in kendo, where you perfect your techniques over time, preparing for system design interviews involves consistent practice and understanding of key concepts. Both paths require a strong foundation and the drive to continually improve, which is what makes them so rewarding.
