From Zero to 1 Million: A Nigerian Developer’s Game-Changing Journey 🚀
I would like to admitting that there is no exact blueprint or guide to stepping out of the shadows and becoming a partially more successful developer but here is my story and hopefully it helps you create an idea of what the challenges and the ah-ha moments were for me.
I started out as a web developer somewhere around 2018 and to be quite honest it almost started to seem like I would not get that big break but around 2020 I started becoming intentional about my routines, the people I engage with, how I presented myself because that’s something that don’t get talked about quite as much as it should be talked about but that’s for another article.
I created a routine on my google calender, planned my weeks ahead and slowly started to filter out distractions and setting clear goals for myself. And then I came across one of the best productivity experts “Ali Abdaal” and in his teachings I learnt to be more intentional about my goals and prioritizing things that actually matter, such as sending those emails to companies, not being afraid to follow up on those emails and focus on building myself and presenting myself as the expert that I am as a Frontend developer.

I am no John Oseni or the likes but I am excited to say that I am on the right path to financial stability and even though I’ve garnered attention in what I do I still stay true to my art and my mission towards financial freedom and stability.

Although I haven’t outlined a precise blueprint for overnight success, I’ve learned that working smartly, rather than solely relying on hard work and outdated methods, has been instrumental in my journey. And I wouldn’t say I have broken the barriers because I haven’t gotten to where I want to be and that still weighs heavily but in the long-run the fact that I enjoyed what I do propelled me forward and served as motivation in my everyday life.
