Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Peers:
You have to keep coding.
How I responded:
There's a middle point where you can do both, your career and your dream. Never sacrafice your dream because your career will always be there. You can spend decades in a job and go nowhere. Or you can travel around the country.
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
People think it costs a lot of money to travel. It doesn't. If you live on a budget and don't need the 5-star resorts, you can get even better experiences from it.
