Remember, when I told you mid last year that I'm learning web development. But long story short. I posted my coding challenges and projects I worked on during the course. The only thing I remembered posting that landed me a gig, was replying someone on X in HTML ( <strong> You're a Giga CHAD</strong> ). That's how I got a gig to design and develope a website from scratch.
Still learning though. I'm still finding my stand to reconnect with my networks online after my former X account got suspended. After I reach my goal, I'll start again.
Thank you Ajulu for this. I have always wanted to start building but I have always wanted to build silently but reading this made me realised that I need to build publicly so that people can know what I'm doing.
Thank you so much, Ajulu for wonderful piece.
Please, how do I go about build a community or belonging to a community?
This article from my blog will give you some pointers

Thanks Ajulu, I got to know you at the CPA course. With everything listed here, I'll take them to practice.
And surely get back.
Great connecting with you here Precious

So, help me God! 🙏🙏🙏
Happy that you are making progress in your new endeavour.
Sorry for the X account ban, I believe that you will pull through
I got a my first website development gig through referral even though the clients refused to pay up , sadly.
Building in public has really helped me. I haven't made millions but i have gotten referrals from my contacts who I may not know.
Thank you sir for reminding me the fundamental again. I keep putting in the work
Always collect 50-60% of your pay upfront
And that 60% should be an amount you are okay with even if the person fails to pay your balance
These points stood out for me
1) I should have no shame in sharing my work,
I should care more about feedback than what people might think.
(I implemented for 4 days and I realized that there's nothing wrong in posting updates as far as you're impacting lives)
2) I have to pick a starting point and get good at it before adding more.
I should learn in a more structured manner.
3) If I'm moving towards AI or new sectors, I'll have to put in more work.
The first thing I should do is learn the culture of that sector and what makes it tick.
Studying its history which will give me more insights than just people's reading opinion pieces.
Thank you for sharing Ajulu.
PS: Thank you for making your book free to us.
Glad that you picked out what works for you
Looking forward to your testimonies
