Day 8 of 180.
One small mistake in a class exercise made me doubt everything I’d written. The fix wasn’t rereading the tutorial. It was breaking the code into small pieces and asking: what does this line do, and why?

Notice how Steph Curry didn't rage... he waited until the podcast clips peaked, called them out calmly, and plugged the streaming platform at the end. That’s how you turn internet noise into free marketing😂😂.

Every great movie studio makes the exact same fatal mistake: they turn a standalone masterpiece into a forced sequel.

In January, Michael Carrick walked into a burning Manchester United locker room as the interim guy and pulled off a miracle... 12 wins in 17 games, top of the form table, straight back into the Champions League.

Then the board handed him the permanent job, and the sequel collapsed in 10 games. One win, 18th place in the relegation zone, and sacked before November is even halfway over.

Some heroes are written to save the third act, not direct the entire franchise.

I have always been curious about how things work, so from Javascript to React. And too Building things that matters

[Amirat @meeraganiyu]

My React app showed a blank screen.

Day 7 of 180.
Done:Started React (components, styling), finished classes, learned super. Watched one more topic but didn’t practice it.
Planned: React videos, finish classes, more JS topics.

The cause: I forgot to export a file.

@oyibedev So embrace making mistakes

As I got older, I started noticing that the timing was always strangely specific.

It wasn't every time Dad had a headache. It was usually when Mom wanted the house completely to herself and didn't want us interrupting.

Back then, I thought she was just being considerate of his health.

I had no idea there was something else going on.

And honestly, I wish I'd never found out.

Be honest:

what was your first code editor?

[Amirat @meeraganiyu]

@ellaomoni So true, and creative is everything, and I don't know if is it was just me but I learnt a bit of ui/ux and every website or app became a wire frame 😅

[Amirat @meeraganiyu]

@ellaomoni Well good luck in your journey

One time 2024 when I was job-hunting, I was so desperate.

Not a “dream job” type of desperate.
“Even 20k naira can pay bills” type of desperate.
I could barely eat.

Then something funny happened.
I applied for a digital marketing role at a startup.

The founder replied FAST.
I was excited.
“Ah, finally. Serious people.”
We jumped on a call.
Five minutes in, I realized my guy was not serious.

Turns out he had just started the business.
No product. No traction.

But clean logo. Very clean logo. I talked about my experience. He was impressed.

Next thing he said:
“I think I’ll make you a co-founder.”
I was like ehhhh 😭.
I asked, “Will I be paid?”

He said no.
I asked, “Even stipend?”
He said no.

I'm my head I said Jesus. I thought it was the worst until......

He added, “You’ll also help pay the team.”

Like I mean my own money that I don't have???

At that point, .
I muted my mic and smiled.

We have never spoken again.

Job hunting as a newbie with no experience is terrifying.

You’re not just fighting rejection.
You’re dodging unserious founders with big dreams and zero budget.

I hope you get that job soon.

If you're at a point in your life and it looks like you're not making progress, keep making moves and doors will open

In 2019, I started working with Architects as a Freelancer, we didn't know much and our work got returned for reviews

In November 2022, I took all my earnings from Freelancing and relocated to the US

In 2023, I started interning with some Architectural firms in the US

In December 2025, I built a Startup and didn't know how to go about marketing

In 2026, I met a lady who introduced me to Startup communities and I was able to attend Founders Credit Club. I shared what I was building with them and they gave me suggestions on how to improve my product

Last two weeks, I attended an Autodesk Accelerator Program and it can only get better

Doors will open as you keep moving
