A lot of people think Data Analytics is just dashboards, charts, and Excel.

But I’m learning that the real value is turning messy data into clarity—and clarity into better decisions

Still learning.building.showing up.

What does Data Analytics mean to you? 👇

#DataAnalytics

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

This is one of the people who made data analysis feel real to me.

I’ve learned a lot from Kedeisha’s videos, and posts like this remind me that becoming a data analyst is much more than learning Excel, SQL or Power BI.

I’m learning to think, question and solve problems.

[Kedeisha Bryan @kedeishaindata]

Please do not become a data analyst if you think the job is just dashboards, certificates, and letting AI do the hard parts.

Real data work means asking better questions, finding the root cause, explaining messy numbers to real people, and helping leaders make decisions.

AI can support the work.

It cannot replace your judgment.

That skill comes from real practice with real problems.

If none of this scared you off, DM me ‘DATA’ and I’ll show you how I went from delivering pizzas to landing a $90K+ data analytics job without a degree or tech background.

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

@kedeishaindata You are the reason I'm breaking into data I really admire your work

Your YouTube videos have been really impactful

Just started Excel tho😆

Curious — how many hours do you dedicate to learning or studying each day?"

Learned why the $ sign matters in Excel today. Drag a formula down without it, and your reference table shifts with it — total chaos. Add $ before the column/row and it locks in place. That's Absolute Reference. Small symbol, huge difference. #Excel #Aspiring

Then came XLOOKUP — the modern king of lookups.
It answers 3 questions:
1️⃣ What am I searching for?
2️⃣ Where should I search?
3️⃣ What should I bring back?
Instead of typing values manually, Excel fetches them for you from a reference table. #DataAnalysis

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

Today's Excel lesson: text functions.
UPPER = ALL CAPS
LOWER = all lowercase
PROPER = Capitalizes Each Word
TRIM = deletes extra/accidental spaces
Small tools, but they're how you keep messy data looking clean and professional. #Excel #LearningInPublic

Another episode of learning data analysis without a laptop until I can get one.

Today we learned text function (UPPER,LOWER,PROPER,and TRIM)and the Lookup Kings (XLOOKUP)

Absolute reference:the ($) fix

@FortuneDataGuy Rest?

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

This particular exercise taught me that knowing formulas and having strong Excel skills alone doesn’t make you a good analyst. Understanding the question, knowing what the data is telling you, and being able to answer the question accurately are what make you a better analyst.🔥

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

Grab this!!

After the weekend exercise given to me by chat GPT finally finished it and all I can say is I did a great job with the normal Excel formula stuff but the thinking Iike analyst question section got me hooked and unable to move forward so I had to asked for help 😑🤦🏼

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

Grap this!!

Have a great week ahead 🎊

This is my weekend challenge. Let’s see how far I can go. 📊

#Excel #DataAnalysis #LearnInPublic

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

Its weekend and I’m getting more excited about Excel and data analysis more. I can’t wait to get a laptop and start working with real datasets.
For now, I’m making do with what I have. I asked ChatGPT for new dataset and questions based on everything I learned this week.

[Ballat Chechet | Data & Insights @BallatChet]

Learning with pen & paper until I get a laptop. No perfect time to start—start now.
