stay hungry, stay foolish

aspirations change with time. and one of the biggest factor for me was money.
people ask how i understand problems so quick and solve them (sometimes i can't). this is because i have been with that problem a long time ago.
i used to build electric gadgets/circuits and when it didn't worked i tried to figure out what's the problem with it and solve. i was so interested in electronics (dissect all electronic stuffs e.g.: motors/lights/transistors from toys) but i couldn't get into it deeper.
the problem was money. i never had money to buy electric stuffs during those days (2017-2018) and because of that i couldn't get into electronics.
my dad had a personal computer back into 2011. i used to play candy crush, eco farm, airplane simulator and watch videos on youtube. as i don't had electrical stuff to play with i decided to start investing my time in computers. the biggest advantage here was that it only needed wifi and a computer, nothing else.
i started with j2me programming, started writing articles on forums and now my aspirations had changed, from being a electronic enthusiast to a computer geek.
i used to be active on dedomil forum and that changed my interests. people there were so supportive and i got interest into javascript and nodejs runtime. i was loving backend (created many servers and played with it). after that started with react and mastered it.
now i am currently into solana blockchain with the wonderful accounting system and smart contracts, learning rust and anchor.
why all this story?. i just want to say that: aspirations change, but keep learning and you will find a better dot to connect.
stay hungry. stay foolish.
