Reason you are not valuable as a web developer

The reason why some web developers find it difficult and struggles in the space can simply be traced to proverb 22:29 "show me a man skillful in his business he shall stand before kings and not obscure men". Amplified precisely.

Yeah you have a skill(web development) bravo, but ask yourself are you skillful in that skill. Skillfulness is the subtle or imaginative ability in inventing, devising, or executing something. Remember the only criteria to stand before kings(professionals, Top leaders etc) is being skillful at what you do(web development).

Do you know what? "Skillful people only become useful and successful when they are relevant". Are you current with market trend and technologies? "When you are not current you become outdated making you irrelevant". So if you decide to become skillful ensure you are relevant as a web developer.

"When you are not relevant you become a servant, and relevancy comes by intentionality and intentionality starts with a change of mentality"

You must be intentional about being relevant, pay the price, take courses, practice, strive harder to become the best at what you do.
