Why did I decided to be a developer?

Yeah, I know It should be really interesting πŸ˜™, one day my life change entirely,. It can sound really strange but it's the truth 🀝.

Being a developer πŸ‘¨πŸΌβ€πŸ’» has just given me some opportunities which I had never thought, working with really amazing people who make whatever they want until being able to grow daily as professional, it means to be best that yesterday, I'm crazy, I know πŸ˜…, nevertheless working in a highly intensive workspace should bring you a logarithm learning curve. If you have already worked, as a developer, for a company where you have thousands of partners (only in development team) you understand what does it mean.

Why did I decided to become a software engineer?

I always liked computer sciences and all data staff related with that field, I remember when I was developing some small algorithms in C to make my Arduino πŸ€” came across my room without crashes using a Car. I know, I'm really vicious 🀧. Try to become a developer I have had a lot of failures (it cannot be counted using my two hands), but It doesn't care right?

Everyone always forget what means success, it really means to have thousand of failure to achieve a little little little (ten little later πŸ€“) small success but everyone only sees the success and think it's synonymous of luck, but DEAR FRIEND it isn't luck, it's only hard work. Yeah, I know it's only jealousy πŸ˜‡.

The only key to success as a software engineer is to have enough nuts to focus on your work and forget every external comment you can receive πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«. Yes, it can sounds really confuse but if you are thinking what they say to you, you won't be focused on your target which is being the best software engineer πŸ‘¨πŸΌβ€πŸ’»

I strongly recommend you to become a software engineer, but no anyone, only the best software engineer you can πŸ‘». Only keep in mind the following points:

  • Looking for a programming language that fit best according to what you want to develop πŸ€‘.
    There are too many languages but you need to focus on becoming a master in one of those languages, so you can grow making your knowledge as a sharp Speer.

  • Please don't mind to be a developer only thinking in money, I know that developers have a great salary range, upon 150K yearly πŸ˜‡.

  • Focusing on understanding what are you doing not in spiting code πŸŽƒ. Understanding everything will allow you to grow professionally and focusing your career to the best possible approach.

These are the things I always try to keep in mind 🀝, making my professional career more focused and more efficient.
I'm here to give you a real perspective of what are living as a software engineer, this series is only focusing on giving you a clear perspective from someone πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ who has learnt alone.

Really, if you like this post please share with your friends, I write this blog in my free time with a clear purpose:

Bringing to the world the best software engineers.
