Projects
After 4 – 5 years of programming here in the West trying to work and also learn, you realize this:
- A good route to becoming ‘the guy’, is to work and work and work until you one day have your own web studio in computer stuff. This is what Stefan Mischook has done: https://www.youtube.com/@StefanMischook . This seems to be the right route of life for life in computers and beyond with no setbacks or negativity. The route is 100% good and clean living.
But to get to the route takes years if not a decade. That is the cool thing about this life. Instead of thinking of going to school for 2 years and working after and just living life, you have a 10 year plan to keep you going and to be healthy. The things you will gain are priceless at the end if you do so. The skills and knowledge you will attain will be worth more than gold. It helps your health and your mental health for at least 10 years starting now. The things you will gain along the 10 years is worth more than anything else in this world as you are growing and continually improving. You will even notice this day-by-day and people will notice that too. Then you will notice it weekly, monthly, yearly that you are improving with learning computer stuff. You will grow and grow with people. It is a good goal to do and share with others and even collab.
But then I realize I have to just do my own personal projects and team projects to relieve that tension to just web development alone. Web development alone is probably the most stressful job in computers.
You eventually learn after 3 years after school to sort through and get quite few projects going that mean something to aid in your development to do web development one day.
You will have your quirks and things you like to do to have fun and joke.
I currently have this project going on: Gaming Optimizer – https://benchtweakgaming.com/2021/05/31/8-tips-to-optimize-windows-10-for-gaming/
It started with a few tweaks and looks like it is from the year 2001.
It looks like its made for Windows XP (20+ years ago) and shaped like a Cadbury chocolate bar with many tabs and buttons.
That is the fun thing about life in the West if you go in doing your thing. You eventually get to this point in life where you create stuff and have projects always going. Takes years and years. Better start now.
Eventually one day you have all the skills you need to run a professional web studio to feed yourself and fill up. Basically get to a point where in your life you have grown wise with knowledge and experiences throughout the days and years.
That is something you should forward to – growing everyday and ‘thinking outside’.
