Recently, I received a dm from someone who was feeling down after a year of coding. He was wondering why it was so difficult and whether he should quit or not . So I asked him some questions. 🧵Thread:
1) First, are you following best practices? Are you using proper coding conventions and design patterns? Are you following established coding standards?
2) Second, are you working hard enough? Are you putting in enough time and effort to learn new skills and expand your knowledge? Have you explored different programming languages and frameworks to find the one that suits you best?
3) Third, are you working smarter, not harder? Are you using tools and resources that can make your coding more efficient and effective?
By reflecting on best practices, effort, efficiency, and focus, he can make positive changes to reach his goals. Don't give up on your coding journey just yet. Keep pushing forward, and you'll get there.
