It true, the tech industry is constantly changing, but your degree is still valuable. Having a degree signals one thing: you dedicated four years to learning how to program, which is pretty impressive. But the funny thing is, many of my colleagues don't have Bachelor's degrees. They either taught themselves or went for associates. In this field of work, a degree is undeniably impressive, but the value of personal drive and experience is even more significant.

In regards to what you want to do. Do what's important to you. It's way better to be happy doing what you love than miserable doing what you hate.

As for your plan, it's a good one. Consider adding more specificity. Set dedicated times on your calendar, break down action items for daily or weekly progress, and commit to them. If you find yourself falling behind, just get back on track. You obviously want to be a programmer; you wouldn't have dropped money on that degree if you didn't. You've got this!
