I know what you mean! I also was super scared and hesitant to use it at first. I thought it would be quite the task to learn. I didn't start using it until I landed my first developer position as a contractor where we had some Vue projects that had TypeScript. It actually made me appreciative of it, even if it was always yelling at me. Colt Steele is great! I definitely have seen some of his courses before, and I've heard nothing but good things about them. Oh I didn't hear about that. I will for sure check that out. Thanks man!

Thank you Joshua! I really do appreciate such nice compliments. How interesting our paths were pretty similar. It was a tough ride to get here. It took a lot of work, but I knew this is exactly what I wanted and I had to have it. I had the same exact mindset about getting to 6 figures within 5 years. Never would have guessed my first professional job would have been the one that gave me 6 figures. I'm very blessed. It couldn't have came at a better time. I'm extremely happy for both of us and I hope God continues to shine down on us and continues to bless us.

Loved this! Very informative!

Once again, a well written and well informed piece Sam!

Though provoking! I enjoyed reading this. Reminds me of someone many years ago, who spent so much time practicing guitar, and it really bothered them that they were told how "gifted" or "talented" they were. They wanted people to see that they put in so many hours, and it was a lot of hard work, that was the reason they became as good as they were. I think that resonated with me and stayed with me since then. It's great for others and yourself, to remind yourself that you are a hardworking individual, and you got to where you are because of that.

All your CSS art is amazing and makes me want to get into making some myself. Keep up the great work!
