Hello friends,
My name is Tifu Kelison, I'm from Bamenda, Cameroon. As a child I've always lived with and around computers and as such I didn't have much of a choice but to like them or it. Destroyed a few, got scolded atπ π π .
Since i was always around computers, I had to take it in as something in the blood. So how I found out that I want to be a developer happened in a funny way. See the thing was I saw my cousin (Ndi Cedric), coding and he was looking all cool at that particular instant.(You know, like he is the fastest typist I've ever seen).
Then I stopped him and asked "What're you doing", he explained it to me though but I had no clue about what he was talking about π π . After that I asked if he had courses on html and css and he said yes. Later on in the day I opted to transfer the courses to my own machine, and that was when my own journey started. So one day later, I took the time to google about this developer stuff, and I was amazed at what I found. I'll be sharing with you what I found so that if you're also thinking about being a developer, it will make the process easy for you.
But before that I just have to say, after seeing what a day in the life of a software developer looked like, i then knew that I wanted that life.
After seeing what I had gone through on the internet, I was thrilled about joining the already existing developers. Here's what I had found out.
- There are developer jobs everywhere.πββοΈπββοΈπββοΈ
I found out that the need for developers in currently increasing in the world and I just want to contribute to help others grow too. From that very day I started having dreams about working at Google. I discovered that there are a lot of opportunities out there just waiting for you to lay your hands on.
With effort, any thing is possible.
2.Great Incomeπ°π°π°
One of the best things I saw about being a developer. I was totally amazed at the salary that I was shown. I found out that If I were to be a developer, I'd be getting $73,999 / Year according to payscale.com
- Creativityπππ
That is, I get to be creative and create powerful tools to help people like I've always wanted to. I discovered that creativity has no limit in this developer world and I love being creative. I also get to face challenges, for example, I code and then I get stuck, after some time, I come back, think about the problem and see how to go about it. When it is solved, I feel so happy. It's that feeling that I love about coding.
- The Idea of FreelancingπββοΈπββοΈπββοΈ
This particular one I'm happy about because you get to showcase your talent to other people and get hired all at the comfort of your home.
Well, that's all for me. That's how I discovered that I wanted to be a developer.
Thank you for reading.
