Day 026
Watching tutorials feels productive. Building without help feels uncomfortable. That discomfort is where real learning starts. Shipping features is easy. Maintaining clean, stable code is hard. At some point you realize: code isn’t just something you write — it’s something you’ll have to live with.

But today still put in some time practicing git commands today, small hours, but consistent.
Back to work.

Day 027

As you know guys, Saturday is always special for me and today’s grind was the same.
Woke up early, had breakfast, and went straight to the library for around 12–14 hours (with a 1-hour break in between). No phone (completely off), no distractions tbh just me, my PC, a notebook, and the grind. Today I started Bootstrap, but I was also studying for my final exams… just trying to survive uni while building the future.
Good night and happy weekend 🤍🔥

We forget that sickness, setbacks, and pauses are part of being human.

Day 028
I was off from the grind for the whole week 🤦‍♂️like 7 days straight with only watching some videos, which wasn’t productive. The whole week went through intense sickness, one final exam, and also a holiday. I never gave up though. I know this might seem like some kind of excuse, but it really wasn’t possible for me to code daily with tons of topics for the whole week, plus being sick and still not fully recovered.

Anyway, I didn’t quit. Whenever I got small free time, I tried to watch some videos just to stay connected, even if it wasn’t productive.

Today I backed up a little bit, but still not enough. I just read the Bootstrap documentation and tried to get started with the framework.

One last thing I want to add: for the next two weeks, up to January 24, daily updates may decrease and not be straight, but I won’t give up or quit totally.
I’ll try my best as much as I can.

How can someone finish 412 slides before tomorrow afternoon’s exam 😭😭

Telling people about my life and routine was one of the worst things I ever did , it's like leaking out all the energy before you start
Most people talk and A few people work.
Almost nobody stays quiet long enough to win.

Wake up early.
Sharpen your mind.
Build your life.

Day 031

Self-improvement 🤯 especially trying to get rid of unwanted habits and become the best version of myself has been the hardest thing I’ve ever faced.
On top of that, no one around me truly understands me. No one except me and God.

It’s hard. Really hard.
But giving up isn’t an option.
Not until things become clearer.
Resource

Not using AI in production as a developer (learning is different) is a disadvantage now.
AI won’t replace devs rather devs who use AI will.
Start the right way with the official GitHub Copilot basics tutorial 👇
