β Keep Your Skills Sharp
You never want to become stagnant.
Tech is ever-changing so itβs EASY to fall behind.
Try setting aside as little as 15 mins a day to pick up a new skill.
It may seem small, but it adds up over time.
If it scares you, it should be your next goal.
The job market is not the same as it was a few years ago.
If youβre not hearing back from companies, donβt get discouraged.
Itβs happening to all of us.
Just keep applying.
And use this time to pick up a new skill & improve your soft skills.
Your journey will get frustrating.
You will feel like youβve reached your breaking point.
But it will be all worth it in the end.
Whatever you do, donβt quit!

β Don't Be Afraid To Try New Things
Explore as many different opportunities as you can.
How do you know what you like if you never try it?
It's okay to try something new & fail.
Embracing failure is difficult but it's worth it.
Donβt be scared to fail.
Itβs going to happen.
Just make sure that you try to learn something with each failure.
