Intro: The new year has arrived, and it’s the perfect time to elevate my career, skills, and health. Of course, coding will be a big part of the plan, but why not make the journey fun too? This isn’t just about improving my code or collecting more GitHub ⭐—which, let’s face it, are the only stars I’ve managed to earn in life so far 😜. But hey, I’m not complaining, they’re still part of the equation! So, here’s a glimpse at my personal roadmap for 2025 — also known as the Programmer’s Quest 2025 🚀.
Goals for 2025:
Make My GitHub Repo Graph as Green as Possible 🌱:
- A GitHub repo overflowing with green commits is the developer's ultimate flex. Forget about those "green flags" on dating apps—this is the only real "green flag" that matters. Nothing screams "I'm committed" like a pristine commit graph. It’s not about impressing girls (or employers); it's the proof that we’re genuinely dedicated to the grind.
Finish My Unfinished Projects 🔨:
- Ah, unfinished projects—every developer's guilty pleasure. We dive in full of excitement, thinking, "This is the one," but then—hold up, did you see that awesome blog post? Or that cool project idea on YouTube? And just like that, we’re off to the next shiny distraction, leaving the last one hanging. But not this time! I’m making it my ultimate goal to finish all those pending projects before starting anything new. Let’s get it done! 💪
Get a Job or Internship 💼:
- Alright, it’s time to get serious—I’m on a mission to land a job (or an internship, I’ll take either). No more scrolling through job boards like it’s a Netflix binge. This is the goal, folks. I’m gonna put my skills to work and get myself a gig where I can show off what I’ve got. Time to stop talking about it and start doing it! 🎯
Freelance for Passive Income 💸:
- Freelance gigs for passive income? That’s the dream! I’m all in—time to turn those skills into cash flow and build something that earns while I catch up on my Netflix shows 📺. Let’s make that passive income reality! 💰
Update My Portfolio Website with New Projects 🖥️:
- We’ve all seen those frontend devs flexing their skills with portfolios that make us go whoa. You know the ones that make you think, "If I were an employer, I’d hire them on the spot!" We look at those and think, "One day, I’ll build something like that." Well, guess what? That day is today! My portfolio has been collecting digital dust while I’ve been off chasing shiny new ideas, but now it’s time to create something that not only competes with the best but makes other people think, "I wanna build something like that!" Let’s make it so epic that we’re the ones everyone else is trying to catch up to. 💻🔥
Solve and Complete All DSA and Web Development Challenges 🧑💻:
- Time to tackle every DSA and web dev challenge like a boss. No more putting it off or getting distracted. I’m going all in—solving problems, leveling up my skills, and building some cool projects along the way. Let’s finish strong! 🏆
Health and Fitness Goals (Big Biceps, Baby!) 💪:
- Health and fitness goals? Oh, you bet—Big biceps, baby! Time to hit the gym, lift like a beast, and sculpt a body that’ll make everyone do a double-take. Let’s turn those fitness dreams into flex-worthy reality! 🏋️♂️
Aspirations for 2025:
Learn UI/UX Design 🎨:
- No matter how efficient your backend is, if the frontend looks like a mess, an employer with no technical background probably won’t even give you a second glance. First impressions matter, and a sleek, well-designed UI/UX is the key to making that impression count. It’s not just about looking good—it’s about being easy to use too. I’ve seen a documentary where developers use psychology to keep users engaged on their website or app just a little longer. Well, I’m ready to level up my design game and create interfaces so smooth, users won’t even know what hit them. Time to turn creativity into functionality and make every click feel like magic! ✨
Master AI and Machine Learning 🤖:
- It’s 2025, and AI is everywhere, right? The buzz is real, and I’m not sitting this one out. This year, I’m hopping on the AI and Machine Learning train—next stop, mastering the future! It’s time to get my hands dirty with code, algorithms, and all the cool stuff that makes AI tick. Let’s ride this wave and make 2025 the year I unlock some serious AI superpowers! 💥
Read Two Books Per Month 📚:
- I’m officially a book hoarder—I’ve got a pile of unread books that could probably crush a small country. But this year, I’m changing that! My new goal? Read two books per month, and I’m kicking it off by swapping my phone for a book before bed. Less screen time, more page-turning action, and hopefully, I’ll be productive at night without scrolling through endless TikTok videos. Let’s get those books off the shelf and into my brain! 🧠
Learn Six New Skills and Master Them 🛠️:
- Learning six new skills this year, and I’m not talking about how to make the perfect cup of coffee (okay, maybe that one too). I’m going full-on superhero mode, adding real, practical skills to my arsenal. It’s time to level up and show the world just how multi-talented I can get. Watch out, 2025—here I come! ⚡
Learn Two New Languages (Not Just Programming!) 🌍:
- Who says you can’t be a coding genius and a language master? Not only will I be sipping on some Arabic coffee, I’ll be speaking it too! And by the way, it’s my fave—mostly because it’s the only coffee available here, haha! The other language? German, of course. Because who knows when I’ll need it, and hey, it’s a great way to flex on my friend group. Let’s make 2025 the year I’m fluent in more than just code! 🗣️
Plans for 2025:
Write More Blogs Per Month ✍️:
- Write 12 blogs per month? Oh, it’s on! I’m about to flood the internet with my brilliance, one quirky, genius-filled post at a time. Time to write, rant, and sprinkle some serious genius (and maybe a dash of chaos). Brace yourselves, world—my keyboard’s been caffeinated and is ready for this blogging marathon. Prepare for some thought-provoking wisdom... and, okay, a fair amount of nonsense too. 😎
Be More Open with My Family 🏠:
- Be more open with my family—apparently, "I’m busy coding" is no longer the golden excuse to skip out on family time. Who knows, I might even talk about things that aren’t functions or for loops! It’s time to actually be present and share what's happening in my life (beyond just bugs and commits). Time to step away from the screen and let my family in on the non-tech side of my world. Spoiler alert: it exists! 😅
Travel More 🌍:
- Travel more. Who knew the world was bigger than my desk? Time to pack a bag and actually explore, without the distractions of Wi-Fi or “just one more commit.” I’m thinking of traveling around my country by the end of this year—definitely! It’s about time I trade coding for sightseeing and make some memories outside of the terminal. ✈️
Spend Less Time on Screens (Except for Work) 💻:
- Spend less time on screens (except for work). Yeah, I’m taking a break from my beloved screens. Time to pretend I don’t live in front of a glowing rectangle… until that sweet "new framework release" ping pops up, and suddenly I’m back in my cozy digital cave. Work-life balance? More like work-framework balance! 😜
Don’t Postpone Work for Tomorrow 🕰️:
- Don’t postpone work for tomorrow—because let’s be honest, we all know tomorrow’s “I’m too tired” excuse is just as strong as the one you use to dodge a second date. It’s time to tackle today’s tasks, so I can maybe get some sleep that doesn’t involve watching my to-do list grow. Tomorrow’s busy enough—probably scrolling through memes or going on a first date I’ll end up postponing anyway (but hey, at least I can catch one!). 😆
Participate in Hackathons 💥:
- Hackathons by the end of the year? At least 4—look, I know it’s not a huge goal, but hey, something’s better than nothing, right? I’ve been telling myself I’ll participate, but honestly, every time I think about it, I feel like I’m showing up to a gunfight with a rubber band. But you know what? I’ll give it a shot. Worst case, I’ll come up with a fancy app that only works in the "debugging" phase. Let’s hack this! 💻🔥
🗒: Hey, don’t forget to show some love by liking, commenting, and sharing with your fellow code junkies! Your support and feedback mean the world to me! Also, hit me up with any topic suggestions for the next blog. Let’s make this place a community where we learn, grow, and occasionally complain about bugs together. Views keep me going, and let’s face it, who doesn’t need that sweet feedback to fuel their coding obsession? I know this blog is a bit of a novel in the age of TikTok and 10-second videos, but hey, grab your coffee ☕, take your time 🕒, and drop a comment! Let me know what you think—because, honestly, your thoughts might just be the code that inspires my next post. 💬
