Goal Setting For Learning To Code | Ep # 56

from Easier Said Than Done (Career Change & How to Do it) · host Zubin Pratap

The secret that coding bootcamps won't tell you: Learning to code isn't your real problem - it's setting the wrong career goals. Most mid-career professionals waste hundreds of hours "training for a marathon when they should be playing chess" - strategic moves beat brute force every time. Why this matters now: The market doesn't care about your tutorial progress - it cares if you're the solution to a specific problem. Discover the Career GPS Framework that helped my students get hired 3-4x faster than the traditional path.
