The Truth About "Learning to Code" - what other youtubers are not telling you

The Truth About "Learning to Code" - what other youtubers are not telling you

In this video, I'm going to share with you the truth about "learning to code."

I believe that a lot of youtubers are not telling you the whole truth about "learning to code." They make it seem like it's this easy, magic process that you can do in just a few weeks. But the truth is, it's not that easy. It's actually pretty challenging and requires a lot of dedication and effort.

Hey everyone! Today, we're getting real about learning to code. You might've seen those videos where people land amazing jobs super quickly or showcase their fancy developer life. But let's be honest, it's not always that glamorous. It took me 3.5 years to really get into this field, and it might be different for you, but one thing's for sure: it's not a cakewalk.

In this video:

I'll share how I set my own expectations.

• My journey from earning $13.75/hr to making a pretty good salary.
• Why starting your own projects is a game-changer.
• A look into my own GitHub experiences (and yep, there were ups and downs).
• Thoughts on tutorials and how many you really need.
• The value of getting out there, meeting people, and networking.

Plus, a bit about why I’m not trying to sell you any courses.

It's all about hard work and sticking with it, no magic tricks. I'm just sharing my own experience, and I'd love to hear about yours too. Let me know what you think in the comments, and if you like straight-up chats like this, maybe give a thumbs up and subscribe. See you in the next video! 👋🖥️
