Why are there so many Getting Started courses and so little 301 content? Why does so much research deal with the fundamentals and never go in-depth? The problem is simple, niche content is not profitable.

My career path is not going to be yours. And there is no "right" path when it comes to the tech world. You don't even have to stay in the tech world! You can branch out to other disciplines. Remember to keep your eyes open for what suits you best!

Developing content for education takes thought, planning, and focus. You can't just put the pen to paper, you need a plan to guide you through the process.

Developing a product takes a lot of thought, consideration, and LISTENING. Talk to potential customers, investors, and other folks in your field. Find a problem and develop a solution that matches your customer's expectations. Sounds easy? It's not.
