@abhijeet_dipke That's good and all but what's going to be your next step? I mean, don't tell me this whole event is going to remain just a social media stunt without bringing any real change. is that how it's really going to be? What are you planning next?
My brother sells vegetables in our local market.
His entire inventory system was one notebook.
Prices overwritten. Stock missing. Math chaos.
So I built him a simple React app for his shop.
Now he manages everything from his phone 🥬

From a factory worker to a full-stack developer in 1.5 years of grind.
I’m not saying this to flex.
I’m saying this because I didn’t believe it was possible either.
1.5 years ago, I was working in a vegetables factory.
10 hours a day. Packing. Picking. Standing.
Physically exhausting. Mentally draining.
I had dropped out of college because of financial issues.
This felt like the end of the road.
A friend told me: “Try learning to code.”
I saved whatever money I could.
Took some help from my parents.
Bought a laptop.
Quit the factory job.
For a while, the internet became my university.
I kept remembering something @elonmusk once said:
“Everything you need to learn is available on the internet for free.”
I used that line like a rule.
HTML, CSS, JavaScript one month.
Then React.
No fancy courses. Just docs, projects, and breaking things.
Got my first internship.
Struggled. Learned. Improved.
After 4 months, I pushed harder:
– Deep React (no tutorial hopping)
– Backend basics
– Some DSA
That grind got me a full-stack role at a US-based company (onsite in Bhopal).
Life tested me again when my grandfather the person I always looked up to had a heart attack.
It broke me.
I quit. Took time. Regrouped.
Started freelancing.
Got 2 to 3 projects.
Kept moving forward.
My journey hasn’t been clean.
It’s been messy, uncertain, and uncomfortable.
But here I am.
2025 was just a warm-up.
2026 is execution.
If you’re starting from zero
don’t underestimate what 1–2 years of focused grind can do.
Consistency is easy to talk about.
Hard to execute.
Platforms like @namastedev_ make it practical.
What I genuinely like about @namastedev_ is that it doesn’t gamify learning for dopamine it builds habits for real progress.
Daily streaks.
Interview practice.
DSA tracking.
Everything in one place, without noise.
Behind this platform is @akshaymarch7 🚀, whose teaching philosophy has always been simple:
understand fundamentals deeply, stay consistent, and build discipline.
No shortcuts. No hype. Just clarity.
As someone who teaches and learns coding, tools like this matter a lot they help you show up daily, even on days when motivation is low.
If you’re preparing for interviews or trying to stay consistent with DSA and core concepts, this platform is genuinely worth checking out.
Grateful to be learning in an ecosystem that values depth over noise.
Giving myself exactly 2 years.
You are failing because you are impatient. You judge your potential based on 30 days of effort, but you ignore what compounding does in 730 days.
Pick one skill. DSA. System Design. Content. Do it every single day.
Not when you feel motivated. Not when it is convenient. Do it when you are tired, bored, and seeing zero results.
The timeline is fixed:
- Year 1: You are invisible. You learn. You fail in silence. You embrace the boredom.
- Year 2: You become dangerous. You refine. You execute. You become undeniable.
Success is not a lottery. It is a transaction. The price is two years of absolute, boring, repetitive focus.
If you pay the price now, you buy twenty years of freedom later. If you refuse to pay it, you will spend the rest of your life renting your time to someone who did.
Starting from today!!
I’m genuinely happy that Homebound made it to the Oscars shortlist, by Indian cinema standards it is a good film and it matters that a movie dealing with caste reached this stage at global platform.
Finally today my setup feels complete!
Been working hard on to this!
Thanks to coding and trading because of that I have came soo far! Let's change everything now guys! 🔥
Interacting with this for the last time to say that I donated most of my payout to Swabhimaan Trust in Chennai, a trust for adolescents and young adults with autism. I’ve worked with them for my graduation project and they’re doing great work to make different therapies accessible to neurodivergent people

Without AI! Not because I hate using AI! Just because I want my own designs to get used by clients as a designer and developer!
Hey you… yes, you reading this.
Come here, let me tell you something real!
If you’re reading this, you’re gonna make it.
I started with zero. No audience. No skills. No direction.
And still… I kept showing up.
If you’re starting out too, trust me you’re gonna make it no matter what.
Because the fact that you’re here, learning, improving, taking steps…
shows you’re a doer, not a talker.
And doers always win!!!
Thanks to this post!
Also Huge Shoutout to @mannupaaji for teaching @tailwindcss and #design_engineering
Got a new client from @X itself!
Just finished building my "Admin Panel"
It's Open Source so you can use it in your projects!

Leave a Star ⭐ for it!
Just realized I haven’t broken my coding streak in over 100 days -feels amazing!
Remember, the real competition is with yourself. Strive to be better than you were yesterday, not better than others.
