Does anyone have any links to blog posts where the authors talk about their journey on learning how to code and how tough it was? I want to share some of these with my cousin who's struggling with Comp Sci in college. Most blogs I've come across talk about how authors loved computers and coding ever since they were young etc. These resources are not relatable for students struggling with programming

Sharing a few articles on my own journey. Hopefully this helps? https://www.ashwinhariharan.tech/blog/how-to-know-if-programming-is-your-cup-of-tea/ https://www.ashwinhariharan.tech/blog/the-idea-of-an-invigorating-startup-life-can-often-be-an-illusion/ https://www.ashwinhariharan.tech/blog/the-cultural-conundrums-of-women-in-tech-that-we-need-to-be-aware-of/

NoCSDegree folks do exactly that https://www.nocsdegree.com/ 🙂

Thanks everyone 🙂

Not what exactly the story you are looking for. My own story. I loved programming and loved it. But I didn't want to work a corporate job. There was no ways like now to make money at that time without a job. I lost hope and dropped out of engineering. Spent few years doing nothing. Then I started doing design and social media work. Times changed in those 2-3 years. I realized I can make better money with programming. I switched again.
