I have facilitated the Coderetreat at the Global Day Coderetreat 2013 and it was awesome. People loved it. I'll blog about it later.

I will be facilitating at the GDCR13 in Amsterdam at Zilverline. And there are still 3 slots left... sign up while you can! :D
It always seems impossible until it's done.
When code works on development, but not on acceptance or production
Learn how to code. Just do it.
When I wanted to learn programming, I just happened to have access to a book about QBasic, and started working my way through it. It was not fancy, and whenever the computer did not do what I wanted it to do, I got pretty frustrated. I had one person who could help me out from time to time. Often though, I had to figure it out myself.
I have learned a lot of patience for programming and computers in those days.
I believe everyone should learn how to code. Not only because I think this is one of the most wonderful professions in the world, but it also forces you to learn to think. How do things work? Why? It keeps you curious, makes you dig deeper(*).
Today anyone can learn how to code.
Pick a language and just start building stuff. Start small ("hello world"), and gradually get bigger. ("guess a number", "tic-tac-toe", dear to dream... "game of life" or... "tetris" and so on)
If you get stuck, ask a question at stackoverflow, you will most likely find an answer there. If not, just google it.
Keep on looking, and once you get it working, allow yourself to get feel the rush of making the computer do what you want to do. Even if its just a simple hello world. Be proud of your achievements. Don't be afraid to break something. And if you do, learn. Get up, try again.
When you see that first hello world programming running and get that exciting feeling. The feeling you have control over that machine you always used to do your everyday life stuff on...
...then I welcome you to one of the worlds most wonderful professions.
(*) Of course you could just copy/paste all answers from the web and in the end wind up with a big ball of spaghetti code. That also is a lesson though ;-)
