 for attention from others, then
you have the platform from which to get paid for your skills.

Most of the above is for the "web developer" route. Always keep in mind the
end mission of your work. You are setting out to create solutions to problems.
Even if you are helping out other web developers, those developers are
probably working to help a paying client make money. At the end of all roads
is someone like Bob Jones making a transaction with Amy Johnson. These are two
great people who may know nothing about what you are doing, but Bob needs your
help to advance his business. Amy loves what Bob is doing and feels that Bob's
work makes her life a little bit better. Be a good guy and help make Bob and
Amy's life a little bit brighter.

You will also have to do a bit of hustling. Don't wait for things to come to
you, go out and get them. Go ahead and take courses, but drive your education
through your own building and discovery. Don't send out resumes. Directly
contact agencies and dev shops that you find on the internet. Find out who
works for these places and follow them on social networking, Github, Stack
Exchange and other platforms. Interact with them when you see the chance. If
you can't get a job right away, go knock on Bob's door (and all the other
doors in the community) and let Bob know that you can help him out. When you
get Bob's go ahead, treat him like royalty. Even if you make mistakes on the
technical side as you are starting out, Bob will always appreciate the person
who treats him and his concerns as #1. Most people would take the money and
follow-up with a half ass job. If you are different, then you are way ahead of
everyone else.

Use the courses to supplement the above. They shouldn't be your driver.
Remember that the vets who are celebrating their 10 year anniversary today as
web developers didn't have all these courses available. We had books,
documentation and for some things we sort of blazed our own paths.

Good luck and have a great 2016.
