@saronyitbarek Nothing wrong with that, & you've obviously had lots of success because of it! My challenge is that I have ideas for things that could make money, but not sure where to start when it comes to implementing the ideas.
@LawrenceDCodes Been thinking about doing that, or at least drastically cutting back on my social media time cuz I get easily distracted. Plus, it's too easy to get caught up in the comparison game on here, which isn't great for anybody's learning journey.
Met with @CherryOnTech squad, & divvied up our tasks in this final week of cohort. We'll wrap up the project on Fri & the PMs & designers will present it on Sat. I finished a user story & submitted a PR! #100DaysOfCode#100Devs#WomenWhoCode
Woohoo, here I am several years out of college finally giving myself permission to explore, let go of what's not working, figuring out what passion is & isn't, and discovering how to live my life in a way that works best for me. 🎉🎉🎉
I wish less people glorified accomplishing things before 30. More exploring. More starting over at 40. More finding your true passion at 50. More moving across the country at 60. People get complacent because they think life has a time limit.
It doesn't.
Celebrate lifelong evolution.
Tonight I'm coding with a "do it anyway" mindset.
Feeling rusty ➡️ do it anyway.
imposter syndrome creeping in ➡️do it anyway.
Not sure where coding will take me in the next 6mo-year ➡️Do it anyway.
We can begin again as many times as we need. Let's go! #100DaysOfCode#100Devs
@pigletish I remember watching it for the first time about 10 years after it came out and I was like...why does anyone like this horrible creepy movie?
2/2 -🎄Planning Xmas concert + 2 Xmas eve services. Conducting 2 ensembles & accompanying 3 soloists.
🫂Time w/ loved ones
Wrapping up #CherryOnTech in a few weeks. Will return to regular studying tomorrow. Send good vibes and fortitude! Glad for this community. #WomenWhoCode
1/2 -- Been awhile since I posted about #100DaysOfCode or #100Devs. Since wrapping up my commission project priorities have been:
🧠my mental health. I over-committed this fall.
🎹recital & contest prep for my piano students & all the admin that goes w/ running a studio
My holiday break starts tomorrow, and I'm determined to rest! And also revisiting @freeCodeCamp 's JS course just to keep code 'in my fingers,' as we pianists like to say. Breezing thru the early tasks rn, which tells me I've learned a ton between Feb 2023 & now. Gotta celebrate!
Update: big composing project is done & turned in. Huge weight off my mind! Spending today/tomorrow planning out my coding schedule/goals--aiming to stay accountable and focused. Feeling kinda nervous jumping back into code after this time away, is that weird? #WomenWhoCode
@ambernoelle@KateDwyer Great article, thanks for sharing! I'm a gig musician thinking abt switching to a comms day job, & I have skills/volunteer experience in it, but no comms degree. Do you have any resources/advice to share re how I could grow my skills and transition to this field? 🙏
