This was my Achilles heel and something I struggled to break out of for three years. I wasted three years of my life being afraid of getting my hands dirty and as such have failed at an internship and some interviews.

The end of last year and this year has been completely different. Yeah, I have courses but I rarely finish them; I just need to get the gist of a thing then I dig in. I've also started working with basic sandboxes on Codesandbox.io to sharpen my skills. It's helped me level up more in one year than in the previous three. I can't stress building things enough.
