some advice from software engineers for beginners!

source

be aware that you will never feel completely prepared. avoid bouts of anxiety and be wary of self-deprecating thoughts. keep studying consistently, as this will bring progress.

understand the business rules of the problem you are solving (i.e. clearly understand what the code needs to accomplish in the real world).

more important than speed is direction. take your time, but move forward with purpose.

avoid studying only by copying tutorials or code snippets. this approach limits your development and increases the chance of being easily replaced by artificial intelligence.

seek out as much experience as possible and don't be afraid to make mistakes - they are part of the process.

take pleasure in learning and exploring. try to create things that you really want.

one of the biggest mistakes is to create the same projects that everyone else is doing. look for innovation, originality and solving real problems.

networking: participate in groups and communities, genuinely contribute to discussions, get involved with open source projects and make yourself visible in the field.

be patient. learning and professional development are continuous.
