Coding is hard!!!

I have always been fascinated by the things my fellow humans are able to accomplish with the internet. In a space where it is only a few can thrive in. You have to be kind of special to be in that space. For years, I have been trying to take a stand if I should focus solely on software development. Watched Youtube videos where I saw people doing amazing stuffs. My brain began to process and assimilate what I have been watching and observing. It is actually easier to watch videos and feel you can do or replicate what that individual did. Not the case, you get stuck for a while. I decided i will like to do things with world technologies: web development most especially. It's been a hard and tough journey. Frustrating moments and days of giving up. I guess that's where grit comes into play. To keep you going. It's been an interesting journey and i'm loving the experience. Accomplished so many stuffs in the last 3 months.

Practice will make things much easier over time. Watching too many tutorials will make you think that you are better than you are. There is a difference between writing your own code from scratch and watching someone else write their own code 😄

Exactly. I think that's the only way to improve. Keep practicing.
