The first week of my project, which I decided to name “Spark”, is about to begin. This blog serves only one purpose — to track my progress over the course of one year. I’ll be starting almost from scratch, as I don’t have deep knowledge of programming or the IT field as a whole. Right now, I’m only capable of building a simple web application with basic front-end, back-end, and simple algorithms.
There won’t be much text here, since my work will be focused, stripped of doubts and worries. In order not to burn out over the year, I’ve simplified the process as much as possible, using my analytical type of thinking only in the most critical and important moments. After all, one cannot completely shut off their mind — I don’t plan to become dull in the digital era by watching short videos and endlessly scrolling feeds.
Alongside my tech studies, I’m also learning Chinese — 336 words per month, to be exact — and two test weeks have already been successfully completed. My plan is ambitious, but I believe it’s achievable. Let’s go. The project details will be revealed along the way.
In a year or a year and a half, I might become qualified for FAANG companies, though I don’t have a strong desire to work there — or I might end up as no one. But I have nothing to lose; otherwise, I’ll simply continue as a tennis coach with over 10 years of professional career experience.
