The journey into programming began with the curiosity of how websites, apps, and games were built, leading to learning HTML, CSS, and JavaScript through self-teaching methods like YouTube tutorials and online resources.
Initial struggles with coding, such as debugging errors and missing semicolons, eventually led to small victories like creating buttons, forms, and to-do lists, boosting the sense of accomplishment.
Milestone achievements include building the first project, a website for a fictional business, transitioning programming from a hobby to a serious pursuit, and later, collaborating on complex projects and securing an internship for real-world experience.
Programming not only provided a valuable skillset but also instilled a problem-solving mindset, turning challenges into opportunities. The continuous learning process and the joy of sharing knowledge through writing and mentoring have solidified programming as a lifelong passion and a rewarding career choice.
