Go deep into one thing
Sounds like you have a lot of breadth, likely that means great overall instincts. This is a great asset!
So you feel you’re out of date in your skills? Don’t boil the ocean. Instead go really deep into a specific new, marketable thing. As a side effect you’ll learn adjacent skills. It’s more time efficient and helps you gain confidence.
You’d be surprised how many people actually have very shallow skills in modern things. They put “AWS” on their resume, when really they pointed and clicked a few times to start a server.
While you’re going deep freely give away what you learn. Write, speak, whatever. This both better reinforces knowledge you’ve gained as well as advertises your skills to others.
