First Post: Why I decided on Full stack dev

I lost my job some years ago and decided a change of career was needed. So, I took to forex. I couldn't really say I was unsuccessful in forex trading but just that I was not cut out for the high level of risk that is involved in that area.

So, when covid-19 came and I realized I had lots more free time, I decided to learn a new skill. I couldn't decide on what skill to learn, so I did research on the Internet and voila, programming was what I decided on.

I took to it with passion as I do everything I put my hands on. That is how I started programming in python. I am presently taking the MIT 600 part 1 course on programming with python and intend taking the part 2 in October. Not just for the certificate, but also for the experience. I am enjoying it terribly.

So, here I am, deciding to go full stack with python. That means after python, I would gravitate towards javascript, html and css. Then sql. There are lots of skills to learn to go full stack, but I will get there.

The future is ahead of me and I have to take it in full stride.
So, hello world! Here I come.
