I don’t want to sound discouraging, but I’ll be honest.

First of all, you need to figure out what you really want and what you’re willing to do to get there.

Some people mentioned starting your own project above. I think that’s a really great path. I was in a similar situation: I started learning programming about five years ago. I don’t have a technical background at all — I’m actually a humanities student. I didn’t choose programming because it was trendy. I chose it because something inside me said, “This is my path.”

At the time, I lost my job. I had several children to take care of. It was a tough time, but I kept learning every day - step by step.

And now? I create things. Not for money yet - for craftsmanship, for freedom, for the future. And little by little, doors are opening.

That’s why I say: follow your heart, but don’t forget about your mind.

No problem is unsolvable. Sometimes the road is long. But it’s still a road.
