Hi there viewer :-). I am back to posting my tech progress after a long hiatus from not doing so. I am back partly because I realised it does help to post your progress; and partly because I know "If nothing changes, nothing changes". By that I mean that if I don't tweak my daily routine to align with my goals, then I will remain stuck in the position where I am at today. Not that I hate where I am at today, but I know there is more; I know I can be better.
About where I am at today tech-wise- I feel like I should dedicate time to practical learning. I did do a course on full stack web development but after I finished it I felt a bit blank. It was like the training wheels off my bicycle had been removed and I had to ride on my own for the first time. Like I said, as much as I had gathered much knowledge during the course - from html to even motoko for cryptocurrency development- I felt blank starting out on my own.
Tutorials really helped when I got my first clients. I worked on the front-end and got help with the back-end. At the moment I feel comfortable working with html and CSS. As for JavaScript I am still re-familiarising myself with it on w-3 schools. I am also working on a project that will help me re-learn how to work with node JS, Express and MongoDB. After I am done with the project I hope to be skilled in working with databases.
As much as my tech journey has not been as smooth as I envisioned it to be, I choose to speak life into this career path I have chosen. Granted, there's a lot to be learnt. But I have also learnt a lot. I just need to do a little bit of reminding myself. Like today collaborated with chat GPT in order to understand what node JS and express is. I also used the same tool, AI, to understand the package.json file a bit better.
I believe if I do what I have done daily I will move from amateur to guru in no time :-). My one true prayer is that I remain consistent.
