   This is not good advice and it largely goes against steve jobs work. This fundamentally works, for a small subset of people that are predisposed via their personality to extremely high levels of dilligence and conscientiousness who need to

   Work through the Odin Project or do python on Exercism. Aim initially to improve what you normally would do with excel in terms of handling data. Once familiar enough attempt to build something. I cannot stress enough how important it is fo

   This is a problem as old as human beings. People want sex. Sex happens most for those who are considered most socially valuable (for men anyway). People look for socially popular things, select those that are accessible and adopt them to si

    I felt this way at 23, and this is such a damaging mindset that im only just moving past it at 32. You have been raised in a generation that is somehow even more comparative than mine, which is utterly crazy. What is interesting is, most of
