Hi there,
Reflecting on my journey, I vividly remember my first experience with computer programming during my university days. It all began with QBasic, followed by a brief stint with Visual Basic, before exploring the intricacies of C in Matlab. However, learning these languages wasn't an overnight thing. It felt akin to a novice trying to ace a game of tennis without prior experience.
When I ventured into entrepreneurship, I assumed the role of a technical founder, navigating the realms of Python and SQL. One of the defining moments of my career was the opportunity to glean insights from seasoned engineers who effortlessly wrote better programs.
Looking back, I recall those moments spent observing and absorbing knowledge from my peers. Ironically, during that period, I lacked a personal laptop and relied solely on the generosity of family members and my now-wife. Despite the challenges, I remained steadfast in my pursuit of proficiency.
In hindsight, I often pondered, "How did I practice?" lol
