► How To Get Started In Programming? ◄

I know I get this question a lot. Day after day new aspiring programmers enter the workforce. People from all around the world and, mostly, that comes from different fields, aim to become or learn programming.

"John, how do I get started in software development?", "John, how do I start coding?", "John, how can I start my career as a programmer?"

Before I say anything else, I need to say this: There is no right way. Instead, there are A LOT of different ways in which you need to pick up the ones that suit you the best.

In this video, I'll lay out some of the paths to get started in programming and present you the best options for each case. Every case is a case and the path you should take is up to you to build.

► How To Learn EFFICIENTLY In Software Development◄

If you follow me for quite a while you've probably heard me talking already about learning and how I believe that learning is a big part in anyone's road to success or failure.

In software development, it is not different. There are a lot of new technologies, new frameworks, new programming languages that come out every day and we need to make sure we can cope with that pace.

But, how do you do that?

Wasting hours reading books from cover to cover won't take you anywhere you need to go. Instead, you need to develop a proper plan that will make you learn efficiently in software development.

► Dishonesty: Does It Pay The Price? ◄

Today we are going to talk about dishonesty.

Dishonesty could be defined as:

"Definition of dishonesty

1. lack of honesty or integrity: disposition to defraud or deceive 2. a dishonest act :fraud"
