| I feel completely demotivated that most companies (and all big companies) weren't considering me when I applied to them (and probably still aren't). It crushed my motivation I understand that feeling. I lived a very structured life, gym in morning, breakfast in the office right after, clean diet eg. the lockdown + moving back in parents, removed those structures. When I first started looking I got my DS/A in tip-top shape, and consistently applying but after grinding for months with no interviews and ghosting recruiters I've hit a point where I'm tired. I think I've accepted that I'll need a new career and it's been an ego blow but it's freeing. I feel like I'm 17 again with no idea what the hell I'm going to do, thankfully, I've got my health and no dependents. I too did just learn about hooks for a little side project. React is interesting, I've never done any frontend so it's different. I've also been playing around with rust as a backend too, that's such a cool language.
