[@tinamajumder8026]

I can't thank you enough for your amazing course! Initially, I hesitated due to financial constraints, but it turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made. As a beginner in Mern stack, your videos and teaching style made learning incredibly easy. Now I'm confident to tell that I'll become a master in this tech soon. Thank you for providing such a beautiful course!

yep, I too gonna take the risky decision. I already have 3 years of experience in support. Planning to move to development, I just started learning Java, In the next 6 months I will build my fundamentals strong and I thought to resign. later I planned to study for full 6 months and get into any SDE 1, even if it is a low salary. Stay strong Guys..🔥

[@josepchwill1304]

One thing I did at my first position, which was a contract that put me ahead of most developers, was outperform all expectations of me as a junior developer. I never thought I was doing anything special; I just thought I was doing what I got paid to do. I started getting indirect feedback from the VP of IT through the consulting firm I worked for that I was far surpassing everything they expected, and they had me working on mid-level assignments after only a few weeks. By the end of the contract, I got a recommendation from the VP of IT, which follows me wherever I go. Some people will say putting in more work and effort won't get anyone anything; in my case, I did not know I was doing anything special. I have a strong passion for what I do as a developer, and it is easy to put all distractions aside and focus on completing my work. Thanks for the video.

Highlights 🔑 Develop a winner mindset focused on continuous learning and growth in software development. 🤝 Choose your inner circle wisely, surrounding yourself with passionate and like-minded individuals. 🦋 Understand the power of small actions and the potential for significant impact (butterfly effect) in your career. 💪 Take calculated risks in the tech industry, as they often lead to growth and success. 📚 Shift from relying on books and notes to project-based learning to gain practical experience and skills. 💡 Seek opportunities where you can be paid to work on projects, even if the compensation is low, to enhance your learning journey.

@@sudipmandal2497 Hey I was wondering about what harkirat said about making notes. If we don't make notes in the initial stages of learning a new tech stack how will we retain all the basic information about it?

[@sudipmandal2497]

@@tooglem1468 Make notes for yourself. It will help you to crunch new stacks faster. Also in hand practice of a language/framework is very important. And If you are into AI/ML then always make notes. I will provide my example-- I recently got selected for an backend internship opportunity after 2 rounds of interviews and my org. is using MySql with Prisma ORM. So, I had prior knowledge of noSql (MongoDB) and MERN stack with Next.js. But learning sql relations and performing CRUD operations with Prisma is whole new thing for me. So I learned by watching a course on youtube and coded along and made some notes. I watched "Learn Prisma In 60 Minutes" -by Web Dev Simplified video and coded along and made notes in 2.5 hours. And for mySql I watched a separate video and read W3 schools SQL docs made notes on queries and joins. You can always refer to docs but making notes is great for retention.

[@Rahul-kz5fi]

Can you tell me your qualifications to get the internship

[@dreyadreya972]

This is some solid advice. I'm leaning more towards Data Science but this advice still holds water and really helps, thanks man.

The idea of mass friendship is good as long as u don't wanna create something. Once the idea 💡 of creating something hits u, u need to restrict yourself to pple with common goal. I agree, it just multiplies productivity and compound the chances of success of the project

Its been 8 beatiful months since i started following you. For me you are the butterfly effect. I started my journey in Networking CCNA/CCNP cisco. And i had accepted the fact that to earn a really handsome amount i need to pour alteast 8-12 year & constantly grinding my way to that desired number. YOU actually made me a really good developer. The first advice i took from you was install Linux and today I'm confident in MERN Stack + Next.js TS, learning Rust on side. Thank you bhaiya

Great content! I’ve been a software engineer for several years and realized I wasn’t staying on top of the newer technology like I should be. I’m going to contribute to some open source projects to sharpen my skills.

[@sahilkalamkar5332]

Hey let's say that I want to learn more about core Backend engineering(low level databases, network layers), but it's overwhelming navigating through a huge code base. I don't think any Freelance client will pay for such project, so open source seems to be the way, but building the project itself takes time, let alone navigating a huge code base. Can you suggest a learning path for a noob like me?

[@fakegmail3051]

See it all start with just building a full stack project and most important is to deploy the deployed project will itself build your knowledge towards core backend... Coz while deployment you will be finding free credits / cheap cloud service and keeping the project updated (adding features) giving through cloud bill will tech you day by day ✌️ replys appreciated 👍

[@raksh.n6935]

Hey harkirat, thanks for the amazing tips!! BUT... At a point where you mentioned where a beginner can underprice themselves and get paid to learn....Do you really think that happens?....like being a beginner myself...I don't have the confidence to charge someone until I gain some experience. So when I know I don't have enough confidence...it becomes difficult to follow your approach of learning while earning. Can you please clarify on how to tackle this problem? ALSO... 10:08 At this time-stamp in the video, you mentioned that we can find someone who can pay us 200$ to build a website and that 200$ can be taken as our initial motivation. But how and where do I even find them?

Asking you because I think u can answer them best ------- I was learning web development ok and then my plan is to goo deeper in this only like learning 3 d web and after that blockchain stuff but yesterday I saw wwdc and saw vision pro and I am confused what to do?? 1. Should I switch? Or start focus on ar vr thing? Or should I focus on what I was doing... 2. Also tell like these days there are soo many tools through which a non coder or a normal person can create a website like legit cool and very functional website even with 3d designs sooo what you think is the future of web developers?? Is it still worth to learn or master this skill? 3. Kindly tell should I learn how to make websites that can be viewed or explore through VR headset...????

But bina padh ke build kaese karenge, kahi se to padenge. Book nahi notes nahi to koi blog ya video. mae kuch build kar ra hu then stuck hu because concept nahi pata, mae chala gya web pe problem search karne aur mujhe solution mil gya but ab mujhe concept hi nahi pata hai kyu ki maene koi notes ya book se pada nahi. Matlab kaese bina pad ke mae build karunga, ye complete picture nahi hai bro stop misleading. Better approach ye hogi:- 1. Jump start with small concepts don't read indepth books/articels 2. Use these small concepts to build 3. incrementally add understanding to these concepts 4. Again add these understandings to you Project 5. Now when you are stuck and want to create new thing, you can easily convert your real world problem to tech you are learning 6. Once you are done with things you wanted to understand and build, Now choose the specialisation and dive into the books. Big systems are created because good authors/scientist have shared there knowledge through books and Articles.
