"Learning To Code Feels Like A Chore. Will I Ever Develop Passion For This?"
Manage episode 434074329 series 2882348
Learning to code can feel like a grind, and for some, the passion might never develop. In this video, I respond to a viewer who's feeling burned out and frustrated, questioning if they'll ever truly enjoy coding. I'll discuss the reality that, for some people, the passion for coding might never develop, and that's okay. Maybe coding isn't the right fit, and there's no shame in that. I also talk about the possibility that passion could come with time, but it’s important to be honest with yourself about what excites you. If you're struggling to find joy in coding, this video might help you figure out your next steps.
