For those who started out coding during the pandemic, it can be a bit hard. Especially if you were laid off because 'you were new to the company'(Trying to reduce the budget, they say). On top of that, It can be overwhelming to learn something completely different from the previous career you had. If you a single parent, it because even more overwhelming to balance learning to code and family. Pull off last nights or early mornings before everyone gets up.

I wanna know, how you still keep that fire burning and pushing to learn code against all odds? (Do it in the comment section🤗)
I love taking time to relax and go for walks alone when I am overwhelmed or anxious about something. It gives me time to analyze the situation and come up with a realistic solution. This rejuvenates and helps me to clearly think about the next step. (Mostly for coding challenges or when I am learning something new.)
That's a good reason. It will definitely get you through the tough times.
Keep going.
