Life Problems...

Gustavo H. - Feb 26 - - Dev Community

Since I started in this area I never thought it would be easy because I already came in knowing the difficulties and how resilient I would have to be to get through them all, but these last few weeks it has been much more difficult, I need money to help my mother and father at home and yesterday my mother said something to me that left me with nothing to say, she said that as much as I clearly really like being a programmer it was time to start thinking about leaving this area and this "dream" aside, honestly I couldn't respond she, and at that moment I said that I would think about this. Since my first contact with programming I felt that I really wanted to understand and do that, be that, but even after several CVs, linkedin, github, personal projects, trying to contact recruiters and I'm even improving myself in a new language (English and I'm really enjoying it) and still no job in that area and much less any interview, I'm applying for other areas at the moment because I need to help my parents, but I'm largely disappointed in myself. Even though I couldn't follow my dream. And I wonder where I went wrong? and I have some answers, but even so I still can't answer what my mother said, if anyone reads this, thank you for reading my story 🙏
