My Year in Review: 2 Years in Tech - A Never-Ending Roller Coaster Ride.

Dear David, Thank you.

A friend sent me this link yesterday and when I saw the lent of the post I hesitated, because I had spent a lot of time reading a course and I was totally spent after.

Journey was challenging but it's beautiful how you fought through it, thank you, you inspire me.

So apparently I am a freelance writer, and recently I came across technical writing and it took my deepest interests because I've always loved tech but I didn't know where to come in.....so, finally technical writing gave me my entrance into tech.

I started my learning journey some days back and reading this has really pumped me up for the journey.

I had to create my hashnode account because of you and I'll consistently follow this space, you'll also see me on your other platform by God's grace🤭.

Thank you for choosing to inspire even as you aspire.

Cheers, David 🎊🎊🎉🎉🎈

Thank you, David. I have a friend who's into technical writing and you just gave me a glimpse of what it is to be one. I'm proud of you P🥺❤️. For me, I've cried many times that maybe this tech thing is not for me and thought having a mentor equates me to doing well. Well, thank you for showing me I can do tech well if I'm determined to. Thank you! And I do hope you get the full-time frontend job you desire.

Man!! You're amazing You blew me up, it's like the story is pouring a whole lot of energy into me. This is the article I'll always come to read when am down! Keep excelling.

This was such a heartwarming read. A whole rollercoaster of so many emotions. I'm so happy for you Stranger!🎉 This is only the beginning of so many wins 🏆

Inspiring! Our journeys are essentially identical, even though the wins really haven't been forthcoming for me.

Overnight successes truly do take years of silent struggle. Keep winning, bro!

Great post, David. Probably the longest year in review I have ever read.

Your story is truly inspiring and an evidence that working hard has its own reward. I can only pray you continue to excel and hope for the best for you moving forward. Congratulations and welcome to a an even greater year. 🎉🎉

I enjoyed reading this,it really inspired me to keep going man.Your struggles are prove of where you came from and even though you came from a very poor background you didn't let that define you.I pray you get to do many more awesome stuff,land that full time role and earn more money.Thanks man🙏

Your brother was right when he says that you write good and structured, amazing blog and its a must for newbies in tech.

Dear David,

Thank you for sharing your honest and insightful reflection on your first two years in tech. It's clear that your journey has been a roller coaster ride, but you've persevered and learned a lot along the way.

I especially appreciate your willingness to share your struggles and setbacks. It's often easy to focus only on the successes, but it's important to remember that failure is a natural part of the learning process. By sharing your experiences, you're helping others to feel less alone and more motivated to keep going.

I'm also impressed by your commitment to learning and成長. You've clearly put in a lot of hard work to develop your skills and knowledge. I'm confident that your dedication will continue to pay off in the years to come.

Overall, I think your article is a great read for anyone who is considering a career in tech, or who is already in the field and feeling overwhelmed. It's a reminder that the tech industry is challenging but rewarding, and that it's important to be patient and persistent on your journey.

Thank you again for sharing your story, David. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors!

Sincerely, Taqui

i’m really motivated to get into tech;web development. That twitter thread of your wins of 2022 is so heartwarming. I’m going to create something like that really soon 🤞🏿

David. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I started following you on Twitter during that Enyata Buildup stuff, and since then, your growth and progress has been an inspiration to me. Keep winning brother!

More wins 🎉

This is inspiring More wins 🏆🏆🏆

I am super inspired. Thank you Dave.

Wow. Your journey was a rollercoaster indeed! My 2 cents on your regret on not doing more coding last year is - "na person wey chop dey code. You're adding incredible value in the industry whether you're coding directly, or explaining concepts to the simplest level"

Wishing you more wins come 2023 and beyond 💐💐

This is very inspiring

Really inspiring... Keep moving

This is an inspiring article. I've often engaged with your tweets so learning about your story so far has helped balanced the "God when" with some "I need to do more".

May 2023 be a better year, man

This is beautiful and so inspiring. I love it for you. More wins man!

Wow! even with so many adversities, you still persevered. This really inspired me as I am going through some difficulties in my own life all whilst trying to start my tech journey. Anyways, more grease to your elbow brother 💪.

Lets connect on Twitter bro

This was really a good read and an inspiring one. I wish you the best of luck on this tech journey and i hope to catch up soon.

🤲🏾🤲🏾🤲🏾 this article!!!

Find read this post. I'm highly inspired.

Really worth reading. It's an inspiration to be honest. Key take for me-> Don't try chasing money early when u've not mastered the skill.

You read some articles, and they pierce right through you. You can just feel all the emotion coursing through you, as you read. Truly inspirational. Thanks for sharing this!!!💕

Wow!!! This was absolutely worth the read.

Thank you so much for sharing. I have been feeling quite down and beating myself up since the beginning of this year, but this has inspired me to push harder.

Thank you.

When people see the wins you post on twitter, they won't know how you got there. Keep going 🚀

Ok this had me so emotional all through I hope one day I'll be able to pull through too and look back to how it all began 🥺🥺

You just poured unbelievable energy into me and at the same time got yourself a follower, a disciple and a student...more wins boss

This is a great article. Thank you for breaking the points down clearly and also for the encouragement. If I may ask, how do you receive payment in Nigeria here?

Really inspiring I must say! Thank you for sharing your story. Keep winning David! 🙌

Hello David! Thank you for writing this piece. What really stood out for me was the fact that you recognised the amount of work required, and you went all in. That struck the cord with me. You made so much progress because you gave in so much work.

Thank youu, for sharing, looking forward to 2023

Wow Am short of word , You are good bro , but I do want to ask a question , I study mass communication, can I venture into Tech also as a first learner

This is awesome man.

Your article in one word; Awespiring.

Just seeing this, from reading through this you can actually see the shege you went through, you had no choice literally hence success was your only option, you had to transition away from coding to become a technical writer but thankfully you are earning a decent amount of money from it! its well deserved, what i took away from this is that i should just stick to one thing i was thinking chasing the fullstack path rn but i will focus on backend development/blockchain development.

This is beautiful, I totally understand you, I’m currently struggling not because I don’t have the means but because nobody is taking me serious and I have to source for everything on my own. I’ll read this every now and then to remind me not to give up. God bless you.

Very Inspiring

After reading your review. I think I am unserious . I need to buckle up. David ,you are an inspiration. Like I am in awww. You really turned lemons into lemonade. Life presents us with a blank slate ,we choose what we want to write on it. David,you changed your story yourself. I need to change mine too. I need to take my UI/UX design serious. Me not having a laptop has really been challenging, but I need to put extra effort. Thank you for this beautiful story

I felt soo much connection to your story as a gamer and programmer, your story showed how blessed I am in my life and how far I have come as a developer, I appreciate that you wrote this for all of us scared to write ours, am grateful for you sharing this piece of art with me. I am in a process just like this, I have been helped by soo many amazing people in my life and I really want to make them proud.

This has me reassessing my life I love coding, sometimes though the drive just isn't there. I am reading this at one of such times and I felt the need for a reassessment.

Thank you for sharing this, David. And cheers to greater heights.

Thanks for sharing boss.. It is an inspiration to many of us finding our feet into tech. May we all find the good life we all seek because life is not easy o.

Amazing!! I am having Goosebumps literally loved every bit of reading this, I wish you the best and I hope you achieve more success in life ❤️✨ Thank-you for amazing resources as well 🫂

You know I was getting exhausted on a particular project I was working on, stumbled upon this article and got so energised, I went back to work😅.

Wonderful piece David💯👏
