(Episode 4) In today's video, I talk about my thoughts and emotions when I first got my breakthrough into tech. I had so many limiting beliefs that I would never be good enough to be a programmer previously being an ESL English teacher. But I was able to do it, and so I truly believe if I can do it, you can do it today. I am not that special. I just put in the hours I needed to just like my mentees are doing in this video. One of them is creating a fitness buddy app with a chatbot integration. The other is creating an app that allows people to exchange their skills. I am blessed to be able to build out these apps together with them and see them break into tech in 2025. 🤝 If you want to break into tech in 2025, please apply at: https://letphil.com 🌐 Let Phil's FREE Community Discord Channel: https://discord.gg/RBhnbd3kxv Full playlist of Day in the Life of SWE series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4JjYXOI2R4NMDerIXTMh35VCVoOmKpcF Timestamp: 00:00 My First Tech Job (ft.
