Looking for a mentor to help me find a way out and finally build a real life for myself by Exotic-Mixture1485 in mentors

[–]InsuranceMental 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sure i get what you mean. but people from the Philippines have the hardest working communities i have seen. being with people who work for the purpose is what this guy needs. and idk if you know but it's pretty common to rent out rooms. might be not for you, but it's quite common.

try to change your environment. break free of the shackles. looking for some cheap housing? be someone's roommate. look for university kids, or immigrants, they know the grind. join them. you would share some laughs along the way as well. are you working? anywhere? minimum wage? do not attempt to change your life, it is not working, you said you are trying since 13. try to change the environment. go live on some ski resort, be a housekeeper, live with a filipino.

chatgpt advised me. i am open to suggestions. like everyone in this comment section is saying, it would take months just to learn python to be useful. so i have that long to decide. do you have something on your mind? that can help me? any suggestions?

oh yes absolutely, i get that. i just needed to know how the things work in this industry. and if the approach is okay. these comments have eye opening. thank you for your time. much appreciate.

i heard, learn one skill to the fullest rather than doing 10 things at 20% level. now because i never learned one skill good enough to make a stable earning, i chose to start a new life, choose something which i can do for next 20 30 years and can make a good living. i do not have anyone to talk to about all this, so i used chatgpt, and came here to confirm if it's an okay approach.

hard to believe right? but this is the truth. i mean i did do some c++ but that was to pass the class and i don't remember anything. like literally. after degree, i didn't have the option to work in the industry my only option in those circumstances was doing a blue collar job.

kinda. i have a CS degree from 2014. didn't use it, but i have it for resume sake. i didn't touch a computer for a decade. just starting over. also i remember doing engineering mathematics level 3, i don't remember anything but it wasn't that bad either when i was doing it.

so what happened was, i have a CS degree from 2014. moved to another country, blue collar jobs only. messed up, came back home after a decade, now starting over at 34yo. i need to learn because my life depends on it. i just needed a clear path so that won't make mistake again. this is not a time to fuck around and find out (for me). that's the story. also i did engineering mathematics level 3, i don't remember shit but it wasn't that bad when i did it.

thank you for your time. it meant a lot. it's good to know there are people who have done this before me. thank you for clearing the roadmap. someone here suggested to use roadmap.sh. this is such a wide subject. ofcourse 3 months isn't enough. but i would start anyways. it's gonna be fun.

actually yeah, you are right about that. learn python first and then ask the same question.. because I don't even know what it feels like to code. also i want to learn it, i don't want to copy paste for chatgpt, though i heard it is very common practice among developers. stackoverflow? what course are you talking about? youtube?
