I started coding because I wanted to make games, but now I'm on a whole different path

My dream job is to be a therapist, but I'm a newly single mom. Now money matters a lot more than before! I'm not afraid of complexity, difficulty or learning new things. In fact I really love challenges! I studied Japanese for years & am well adapted to reading kanji. Yes I get tired eventually, but code is not intimidating compared to Japanese. At least it's in English still! I would say software is my second career choice, being that it's intellectually engaging but perhaps not spiritually fulfilling like therapy could be. I don't think I should complain about going with my second career choice for the sake of my child...good luck to me. 🌸

As a software developer myself, I can definitely relate to many of the things you mentioned in this video. It's so true that the learning never stops in this field and there is always something new to learn and improve upon. Your advice about the importance of staying up-to-date with new technologies and being willing to ask for help when needed really resonated with me.

DUDE! YOU JUST CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR ME! I'm a Software Engineering student, I used to be a Google STEP Intern, even though finished the project and worked hard, I wasn't given a return offer so that was quite discouraging. But this video was most encouraging. My real passion is filmmaking, but filmmakers are many times called "starving artists" because of how difficult it can be to get a film made and make money in that career. So here I am studying Software Engineering in a university and I HATE studying the side stuff that goes with engineering with a passion because of how boring it is. I like it and enjoy it to an extent, but it's not my passion, and I always feel like a fish out of the water because everyone around is so "excited" about class, and it's not my favorite thing. But you being absolutely honest in saying that studying it and working for the money is an absolute valid reason motivates me because, in part, that's why I'm studying it, and the tip of levels to see the salaries, BOY did this change things. And how you got hired and learned to code yourself just motivates me even more to become better at my craft. And you saying it actually is hard, just motivates me because I know I'm doing it right. You just earned a subscriber! Thank you so much for sharing realities of Software Engineering. You just opened my eyes to a whole new world. God bless you, man!

I've been a software developer for over 20 years. I went to college to study law and got a degree, but being a lawyer didn't seem right for me so i didn't go to Law School. I worked in sales from there and then decided i wanted to be a Network Engineer. I studied a few books and got a Windows Server certification and got a job as a NE at a very small startup office. It was an empty room when i started lol. I had setup two servers and about a dozen workstations, including backup software in less than a few hours and was then just twiddling my thumbs. My boss decided I needed something to do and said, "hey do you want to learn how to program?". I then essentially became a self taught developer, because back then there weren't a lot of classes available. There were mainly books and only a handful of websites with info. Microsoft documentation at that time was horrible and hard to follow lol There are so many classes and opportunities for learning now. I love doing what i do because I pretty much have to learn a new skillset practically every year because technology changes so quickly.

Totally agree with all your points! I used to think your college mattered, that software engineering would be easy, and that you had to be a developer to enter tech. Now I’m realizing that nobody cares about your college, that software engineering is always changing, and there are many options if you don’t like to code. This video really hits the nail on the head.

It tells me that even the most experienced people are also in my shoes facing a new issue and having to learn something they haven't seen before.

Just want to thank you for telling people they can do it even if it's hard! Feel like a lot of the 'motivational' tech videos are just making you not want to do it because it's hard and you won't find a job but seeing you do it and tell me I can means a lot! Thanks 💙

this is totally relatable, I made a decision last year April with one of my friends who is also an architetct to diversify into software engineering because we were wanted more income. we couldn't even spell 'div', despite our current office jobs we started self learning through KZread videos, docs and now we are both preparing for an hackathon.

Really liked this video, have mostly just researching peoples journeys and trying to pick the best route for me. I loved how easy this video was to understand from someone who has just made "hello world". I thank you for your time to make this! Shall be in the discord soon.

Love the video! I'm just starting to learn about this career field, and this video really intrigued me to keep going further.

I’ve heard different devs say different things about college. I know someone with 10 years of coding experience who said college made him a better developer and someone with 2 years experience saying it gave him nothing and he wished he did boot camp. It really depends-obviously boot camps are the quickest way to learning industry knowledge, but the basics are important so companies don’t see you as a risky hire

That is true. In the real world, there are a combination of people with degrees, and some who are self taught. Both people can be good in coding in the end.

College prepares you for a lot of things besides particular skills. For me, I learned how to think in a more effective way. I learned how to learn. Simple, prerequisite classes, like history, literature, and creative writing, had a huge impact on my future. The literature class in particular opened up my mind and perspectives in ways I never imagined. And putting the classes aside, the experience also prepared me for life and relationships. I was independent for the first time in my life for four years, taking care of my own schedule and responsibilities. There are so many other things about college that are valuable besides the actual classes. And I just went to a small state school, nothing spectacular. But if you are older, and already in that work or career mode than this would not apply. But if you are young and trying to make that decision, just something to consider

For me the biggest challenge has been where to focus attention. Every job asks for different stacks and frameworks and languages etc., and every developer I've spoken with recommends something different to focus on. Interesting world to crack in to!

Coding bootcamps are like the technical school version of a traditional computer science degree. It’s more efficient than a 4 year college! I think those salaries are available for big companies though. I like tech because it’s one of the few industries where you can work remotely! Most jobs are in person. Also, in regards to changing, I remember when var was still used in JavaScript! Now it’s let when declaring variables

I’m in a 4 year going through the coding part now and I complete agree but how far does the boot camp go in term of networking for a job and how much money on Average you think to go through it?

@That one Guy Like I said i've worked with engineers from a lot of different background. Typically you get paid for the position you can do not your education.

This was a super great video, I’m in the medical field looking to switch careers but afraid to leave my jobs paying 32-40 dollars a hour. Medical field is so stressful and draining that I have no work life balance . I just wanna learn how to do something, do it at its best, work alone 50% of the time and 50% explain/ talk/ sale to peoples maybe. And still make great money. I also agree with one of your comments , I wanted to get into real estate too, but I want to be able to make lots of money to put towards that so I can work on having passive income , to working part time and just traveling and having fun. HELP LOL 😅

Yeah leaving a job paying 32-40 would be hard. But tech is probably more sustainable. Since you have a good job right now I would try and self teach at your own pace. You can look into 100devs

@@JeremiahPeoples I’m actually thinking of going to the Online school. WGU for the software developer . Have u heard anything about this school. $3575 per 6 months and u get as many classes done as u want and can graduate with a bachelor’s within 6 months . My current healthcare job I can always go PRN or part time and my pay would jump up an extra $20 while I can study software development

Hola, I just found this video while trying to find inspiration from people who became software engineers as self-taught. My wife and I are exicted to learn how to code and we've started learning HTML and CSS as self-taught but sometimes we feel no inspiration to continue, however, we're still moving on. I wish you the best on your carreer. Saludos desde Nicaragua!

You look a lot like that actor from Archive 81 on Netflix.

Hello Jeremy, Thanks for uploading this video. I'm a new to computer science and all it's fields. But I'm ready to learn coding. Thanks again

Nice video, man! Thanks for sharing your experience

Ive been trying to get into mechanical engineer for like 7 years just to make 65000 a year maybe... I didnan indeed search of software engineering salaries and developer salaries and was stunned, imagine if i spent that time on the right career, now im trying to self teach myself cuz 150000 a year is one hell of a motivation

Lol true about the salaries. But, there’s more to a job than money. If you enjoy Mechanical Engineering, stick with it! I’m in a similar situation as you, but I’m trying to decide on a major between Engineering (either Aerospace or Mechanical) and Computer Science

@@benkauffman9810 Honestly i literally can't even afford to become a mechanical engineer, software however i can get into with as little as 200 bucks (allegedly), I enjoy mechanical engineering but i dont think i would enjoy the job title of mechanical engineer, if i can make bank in software have a healthy work environment and afford to build my own shop in my garage so i can do mechanical engineering projects as a hobby that would work for me I enjoy engineering in general good advice, when i flew a plane for the first time my pilot instructor was doing aerospace, he seems to love it! My advice is whatever you do get a job related to it so you stay motivated, but mechanical and aerospace go hand in hand it really doesnt matter which one you do as long as you do well in school

This was so insightful as it explained things from another angle nd perspective. Thank you

How is your work-life balance? That's the thing that scares me...the "need" to learn all the time even in my FREE time. I don't like that at all. How many hours per week do you spend learning outside work?
