Dear developers,
After 10 years in the software development world, I’ve learned a thing or two—some the hard way. I’m here to share those lessons ...

You’re right! Picking the wrong job can really make someone doubt themselves and lose motivation. Being in the wrong role can hurt confidence and make it tough to stay happy and motivated.
Worth reading
this is really great! i hope an HR doesnt steals this so that he/she can gain traction on likedin. XD
That will be funny 😄
What I believe and also learnt from this content is that Success in software development is more than just coding—it's about continuous growth and balance.💪
What advice do you have for me, a tech enthusiast who's in his first year in the software engineering journey @harimanok
Overthinking is really real and its detrimental to your career. Just start doing something.
I have been a victim of analysis paralysis (and still am). I seem to struggle a lot choosing between development (backend) and ML.
In such a case, I recommend mastering one of them first. To decide which one, you can use these questions:
This was very educational. I don't code as much anymore (for now) but I am an artist and these tips still really apply to me. (As artists develop too right?)
The tips that related to me the most were understanding the project before beginning, taking care of my health (as I do spend a chunk of my day on computer screens, drawing or animating) and understanding that freelancing is tough (I admire people who do it effectively, as it can be quite unpredictable)
I would say another great tip you mentioned is networking. Sometimes to improve on things, one just needs another perspective. And if you can help others on their work in anyway, you should too! Everyone is at different stages and your help might just help someone move on to the next.
10 years is a really long time (more than half my age, I'm quite young) and it's great that you still love this job! Quite inspiring!. Thanks for the amazing post and have a lovely day.
Starting young is a huge advantage! Congrats and best wishes!
Nice quick tips. The point about Prioritize your health could be under all the sections, work, personal and health and fitness cuz it affects everything. Without mental and physical health, you have nothing!
Great post! Thanks for sharing your experience 💙💙
It's my pleasure 🙂

There are sites like codementor and mentorone.
Also, if you know someone then just ask once, they might help.

Web development is all about learning everyday and everyhour and everysecond because Javascript frameworks keep on changing
The key is to focus on the core concept.
The frameworks are there to make things easier & faster.
This was really insightful. I loved it.

Thanks a lot for these precious insights
Inspiring.!
Thank you for sharing.
It's very helpful for me.Thanks!
Thank you. Where do I even begin to find a mentor? as a lot of online advice isn't practical and is more aimed towards AI. I just want someone that I can ask some practical questions and that will be willing to help. As a woman in STEM
I find it hard to find a community, and often my posts are ignored. Anyhoo, thanks for the advice.
