Why Most People Never Learn Tech (And How I Almost Quit Too)
<p>Tech is everywhere—and the opportunities are real.  </p><p>But I almost missed out.  </p><p>I tried to learn everything at once.  </p><p>I waited until I "felt ready." (Spoiler: that day never came.)  </p><p>I compared my Day 1 to someone else’s Year 5 and wanted to quit.  </p><p>Sound familiar?  </p><p><br/></p><p>Here’s the truth I wish someone had screamed at me:  </p><p><br/></p><p>You don’t need to code the next Facebook tomorrow.  </p><p>You don’t need to design like Apple on your first try.  </p><p>You don’t need 100 tutorials before you’re "allowed" to build something.  </p><p><img alt="" src="/media/inline_insight_image/1000051313.jpg"/></p><p>You just need <strong>one tiny win</strong>.  </p><p><br/></p><p>- My first "project"? A broken HTML page that made me want to throw my laptop.  </p><p>- My first design? A PowerPoint slide pretending to be a website.  </p><p>- My first automation? A ChatGPT hack that saved me 10 minutes (and felt like magic).  </p><p><br/></p><p>Every expert you admire started exactly where you are right now—clueless, frustrated, but stubborn.  </p><p><br/></p><p>The difference? They didn’t let the awkward phase win.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>💬 <strong>Your turn:</strong> What almost made <strong>you</strong> quit tech? (For me? Imposter syndrome + tutorial hell.)  </p><p>👇 <strong>Reply honestly—</strong>your answer might be the lifeline someone needs today.  </p><p><br/></p><p><strong>(P.S. If you’re stuck right now, DM me. No pitch, just help. I’ve been there.)</strong></p>
