"I feel like I will never get a job in this industry."

I heard it twice last week.

To deal with such moments and shedding tears:

Think of a fixed point and a map.

You are the fixed point.

Everything you’ve achieved so far.

All the little fights you had with the console.

The map is your learning plan.

Hold it close.

In software, learning curves are steep.

It is easy to slide away.

So next time you feel like your boat is drifting.

Think of these two.

As any sailor,
you will find your port.

Don’t let a silly storm mess with your boat.

Stay cool,
Dragos
