I’m very similar situations as all of you. However I’m farther behind. The drive to get out of this situation. This drive growing more and more only began in my mid 30s. I’m still looking for my first career dev job while grinding out leetcode. Your advice to your younger self is spot on. I still have to tell myself that sometimes as I’m not out of the woods yet. Then posts like this give me a second of pure self pity like I’m too far behind (I know I’m not). Thanks for your post.
