    Go wide enough in your knowledge to know what you don't know. Because then you know what to learn when you need it. Go deep in one area, rather than moving from one thing to another. Because then once you need to change the experience will make the transition much easier.

    Focus on gaining solid fundamentals first. Understand the basics thoroughly before moving on. This will set you up for success as things get more advanced.
    Tech is not only about coding! It encompasses marketing, sales, user experience design, project management and a other disciplines that collectively shape the success of a technology product. Dont be afraid to try and take different tasks and then you find out for yourself where you wanna be in tech!:)

    If you're struggling with something, don't be afraid to ask for help from a colleague, mentor, or online community. Everyone needs help sometimes, and asking for it shows that you're willing to learn and grow.

    Don't wait for opportunities to come to you. Seek out new challenges and responsibilities at work. Volunteer for projects that interest you and that will give you the chance to learn new things.

    Don't give up if you don't get the first job you apply for. It takes time and effort to build a successful career in tech. Keep applying for jobs, networking, and learning new skills, and eventually you'll find the right opportunity for you.

    You’re way more qualified than you think you are… Starting out, you prob think that your peers are technical svante across the board. In reality, most are only good at like 1 or 2 things. And even then, they spend half their work day screwing about just like normal people.
    I would say do marketing 50% of the time and use the other 50% to get your self up to speed on the tech and get in front of your competition

    Try to set goals. You can be in a technical field and LOVE technology for technology but often times that is limiting in career prospects. Learning how to market ideas, build relationships and have empathy will be skills that set you apart (especially with where AI is heading).
