The way I see the world going now, I know that if I want to make it in this life, I must deploy the use of technology and everything around it. It is not as if I did not know. I saw it as I came of age and was smart enough to understand that technology was now leading. I watched as the world transition to the best of my knowledge and I knew that I would come across these things someday, and have to make my decision.

Looking at the prompt, so many thoughts came to my mind about the many skills I wanted to learn but never did and how maybe I would be earning in seven figures if I had just pursued it. In 2022, I came across a small tech hub that admitted people interested in tech. My Onboarder, Belemo, was part of this hub and he had subscription there. He encouraged me to sign up and I was pumped. I just had to figure out how to raise the money and all was good.

However, five days into sourcing for the money, I gave up. Before giving up, I had decided I wanted to learn UI/UX design. Frankly, I was actually confused. I could not decide between UI/UX and their Coding program. However, the coding looked way too complicated so I opted for the design and even now, I have no idea what it entails. I just wanted to learn something and I liked girls with glasses…

Anyway, fast forward. I gave up. Mostly because I was not actually interested. I just wanted to acquire a tech skill and in my mind, they were all hard and none would appeal to me. Therefore, I did not bother even researching to find what would work best in my interest. I would come to regret this when come 2024, it seems that people are looking for not just data analyst and programmers, but also people versed in UI/UX. I did not feel pain though. I felt no regrets. All I did was learn a lesson, which was to start immediately.

Hence, I signed up for a program that would be my first step into the world of skill acquisition and a possible catapult in my career. For now, I will take it one day at a time and learn what I have to. I know little to nothing in advanced tech and that rubs me off the wrong way. As an individual, skills like this is necessary and I would continue to accumulate them for a while. I do not know what waits for me after this, but this sure is an exciting journey.
