The Declassified Career Survival Guide.
I have tried creating content on YouTube for many years. I made videos about programming content and live-streamed myself, attempting to review every problem on Leetcode. I also recorded videos of myself walking and talking as I enjoy the activity of walking.
None of these truly piqued my interest and fulfilled me. I love both programming and walking, but I wanted something more.
I always wanted to help people, so I thought, "Why not make a channel where I can do just that?" That thought is how my current channel was born.
I have been working in the same company for the last eight years. People look at me like I am crazy when I say that. However, this job has allowed me to do so much with my life: take trips, get nice things, support my loved ones, and do creative endeavors.
With the right mindset and advice, anyone could learn to love their 9-5 job and grow within their careers. I hope this content can help someone out there.
