Choose yourself first❤️

Work on yourself, protect your peace, build your future, learn to say no when necessary.

Choosing yourself doesn’t mean you’re selfish it means you understand your worth. Self-love is not about putting others down; it’s about not forgetting yourself while caring for others.


Have a blessed Sunday! 🙏

I'm a software developer from Ethiopia, and honestly, I'm struggling.


I've spent years learning to code, graduated with a BSc in IT, built projects, worked with clients, and kept trying to find my place in this industry.

I know React, JavaScript, Node.js, Python, and Flask. I've built web applications, worked on real projects, and have a portfolio:

But right now, I'm struggling to find consistent paid work. I've applied for jobs, reached out to people, and tried different approaches. It's been exhausting.

I'm not posting this because I want sympathy. I'm posting because I genuinely need an opportunity.
I'm available for paid development work immediately , fixing bugs, building frontend features, developing web applications, or helping a team ship a product.

Remote or on-site. Full-time, contract, or freelance.
If you're hiring a junior developer, need help with a project, or know someone I should speak to, please reach out. Even a referral or introduction could make a real difference.

I'm ready to work, learn, and prove myself.

If you can't offer work yourself, sharing this with someone who might be able to help would mean a lot.
Thank you for reading. 🙏

Good morning

Lately, I’ve been thinking about diligence for me, it’s simply choosing to keep going even on days when I don’t feel motivated. I’m learning that small efforts, repeated every day, can take us much further than occasional big efforts.

Just keep showing up🫶

@CodebyLidia

.....🙄😌

Me and my friend are finally in the same section 😭😂

Well… I guess it’s time to disturb our class again😂
New semester, same chaos. 😂🫶

Today is ETCPC 2026 qualification contest

Honestly i didn't prepare as well as i wanted to because of some reasons, bit i'm still going to show up, give it my best and experience the contest.

For me, this is also a chance to see what the qualification is like, understand where my level is and learn what i need to work on for next year

let's see how it goes🙌

@CodebyLidia

Yesterday, our team participated in the ETCPC 2026 qualification contest there were 6 problems in total. We solved 3 problems, and for 2 others, we understood the approach but couldn’t implement them within the given time.
Overall, we’re happy with our performance, and our standing looks good. It was a great learning experience and showed us what we need to improve for the next contest.
