About Me
It all started on afternoon when I was reading Greenlights by Mathew McConaughey when I stumbled upon a quote that would go on to change my whole career trajectory. Reading books has always been a hobby for me. Sometimes I would even lose track of time while reading a good book.
Those lines were The road less travelled by may not be a dirt road, for some it may be the autobahn. Taking the road less travelled can make all the difference. But that road isn't necessarily the road with least traffic. It may be the road that we, personally, have travelled less. Sometimes we need to get out there, sometimes we need to get in there. Some days our road less travelled is a solitary dirt trail. On others it's the subway on the 7 line.
This got me to thinking what exactly is my road not taken, so after pondering over it for a few days I came across coding and I thought I should see whether it is my road not taken or not. At that time I was about to graduate but even through my entire engineering curriculum I did not feel the joy that came from doing what you are meant to do. Thus finding my road not taken
became of utmost importance. It was then that I started learning web development. It was daunting at first as all my life I had run away from programming and for the first time I was taking a step towards it. I think making such a big change in my life allowed me to face most of my fears and reassured my self-confidence and trust in my capabilities, which is difficult for someone that is constantly pushing himself to be better.
As I kept on going I started liking building websites and webapps. I am now focusing all my energy and knowledge into becoming the best web developer I can be, hoping to work in this industry for the rest of my professional life.
I am a firm believer in the growth mindset concept, and that life is not about finding yourself, but about creating yourself
