Career goal of becoming front end dev in one year
-
Hi guys, first and foremost, I want to take the time to thank all those who contribute beforehand. Your help is greatly appreciated. I have really been stressing on making a good career choice that will allow me to be my own person. Over the years (I am 24) I have been thinking about becoming a fullstack dev for an environmental company (primarily front end for creative reasons.) I believe this is a good choice for me that can be a great opportunity and feed my soul. It is in a field that I love which allows you to be your own person and is for a great cause. My amount of time for achieving this goal is one year. I am currently in the monthly planning stage of it, after I develop a solid sketch I will move on to weekly. I have little experience in the area though I can have a conversation on it, so it is probably better to assume I know nothing. I really need help designing my goal plan. I am motivated to make this happen and will follow the advice given and post blogs on my progress each month. As of right now I am focusing on working a lot and though I have time to relentlessly study I am not sure if school would be a good idea. (its expensive and I make little money) I have started looking into online courses and want to choose the best options. I am not good at goal planning. I am literally turning my life around, changing the way I think and leaping into a new world of possibility through taking control through studying life skills. Any advice on this journey and how it should be approached will be greatly appreciated :)

If you have little to no experience then I would suggest building some apps on your own. That way you can show potential employers what you can do. Why don't you go ahead and get a job now?
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Get as much experience as possible, do extra projects on the side, network, take a professional development course... I'm trying to kick start my career as well ... good luck!
