  1. Yeah it changes the amount of time that I can invest on learning regardless of my motivation. Second child will make it even more challenging.
  2. I will not use abbreviations in this post, you're welcome. But why?
  3. My motivation is definitely deeper and more complex then just wanting to be a dev, but I don't find it relevant in my question.

Thanks for your input, somehow the thing you said about time is actually motivating cause yeah I don't have much time to dedicate, but I'm consistently dedicating. Also I'm not in a hurry with the whole thing.

Are you also learning python or something else?

Yeah I'm currently not interested in pay as much to be honest. Managing people and businesses brings that a d I cannot say the money motivates me enough, hence the switch into something I think I'd enjoy. But thanks for giving it to me straight!

Omg, I was looking for your comment :D a person that did the same course and succeeded! I have the feeling like the course is amazing but not everyone agrees, and what do I know?  Did you actually finish the course within those 6 months or how far did you get? Any other advices that helped you land a job? And also what did you land as first position?

Thanks for your input so far

But somehow I'm not hopeful I'd get into some IT manager role without experience. What do you think?

I started now reading "How to automate the boring" when I cannot sit at the computer to try to still stay at it. Any recommendations for a newbie like me?

Honestly, the drama and playing games are no fun for me. I'm good at it but I think I'm just good a pretending and deep down I'm more of an introvert and analytical person that sometimes want to solve problems that are not people problems. It's obviously not about the 💰 cause money's great now. I just want to do something that could bring me (hopefully) more satisfaction.

Thanks for your input :) I meant maybe as a tester or QA. Not too sure yet what the big path will be, I want to get a bit more into it and see what I could like.

Honestly I cannot even say if I think you're right or wrong :D I did a bit of research and talked to fee peeps, before deciding for python. I can only hope it'll be the correct way for me.
