I’ve stopped thinking that everyone needs to understand what I’m doing.
Some people will support you.
Some won’t understand you.
Some won’t care at all.
That’s okay.
You don’t need everyone to understand your direction. You just need to keep moving.
We don't have an attention span problem.
We have an environment problem.
Put a textbook in front of us → 10 minutes feels like an hour.
Put Instagram in front of us → 2 hours disappear.
I've spent years learning Computer Science.
One thing still surprises me: the people who know the most aren't always the people who explain things the best.
Knowledge and communication are completely different skills.
I've noticed something about adulthood:
You rarely feel “ready” for the next step.
You just get tired of waiting, take the step anyway, and figure things out along the way.
Maybe that's what growing up actually is.
I’m slowly realizing that not every phase of life needs to be productive.
Some days are for learning.
Some are for building.
Some are simply for being human.
I think we’ve forgotten that the last one matters too.
@Cynthia_qn The easiest and most realistic way to make money is to find a real problem that people care about, build a skill to solve it, and trade that service or product for cash.
AI is making coding easier.
But I think that's going to make understanding code MORE important, not less.
When writing becomes cheap, knowing what should be written becomes valuable.
@riya_mishra007 Yes, it's very common.
Feeling lost doesn't mean you're unqualified—it just means you're human. Some days I feel like, "What a day! I've achieved everything." Then, the very next day, it feels like nothing.
One thing studying Computer Science taught me:
Knowing something and being able to explain it are two different skills.
The first makes you knowledgeable.
The second makes you useful.
