Although in theory everything sounds simple, it takes one year to get the title of a programming expert and learn all the necessary techniques needed for a successful career.

To make your journey from beginner to experienced programmer easier, here are some tips to help you progress as you learn and eventually achieve your goal of finding a well-paid job in the IT industry.

1. Seek help whenever you have a problem

If you encounter an obstacle during your studies or later in your career that you cannot overcome on your own, the Internet is a great place where you will always be able to find help. The developed digital community will provide you with answers to all possible questions and open new vistas for you, with which you will become a better programmer.

Many beginners are hesitant to ask a question due to uncertainty, which is a big mistake. Developers love to help each other.

Where to seek help? While more experienced developers answer the problems that plague them on platforms like Reddit and StackOverflow, beginners are recommended WebmasterWorld and Google Groups.

While online presence is very important, remember that it is equally important to make friends with as many fellow developers as possible. Information technology (IT) jobs generally require teamwork, so great relationships and teamwork are characteristics that will make you more professional.

2. Learn to accept criticism

Just as you need to have the courage to ask when something is not clear to you, you also need to be self-critical. In order to succeed as a programmer, you need to learn to accept advice and well-meaning criticism.

During your professional career, the program codes you create will encounter frequent criticism from different people. It is up to you to accept them in the right way. It is true that not every criticism will always be in place, but that does not matter. If you take criticism seriously, you will be able to progress.

Also, it is very important to understand that the program code does not always have to be perfect. In most cases, developers make an effort to meet deadlines for certain projects, while the perfection of the code is in the background.

3. Learn from your mistakesWhile writing the code, try to spend as much time as possible reading and analyzing messages that notify you of bugs. This way, you will reduce the percentage of possible errors each time you create the code. In addition, this approach to programming can reveal more effective angles for perceiving problems when you do not expect it.

I hope that these tips will help at least some of you and serve in further improvement.

These can apply not to just programmers only, it can also apply in every professions. I always wanted my mates to accept constructive criticism to be better👍 to learn from mistakes and to seek help whenever they are in trouble. It can also apply to myself.

very good advice, you should always seek help when it stops somewhere, you should accept criticism because it is well-intentioned and helps you learn and socialize normally with fellow developers.

Nice article, but I don't understand much about technology, brother, I don't think so as it says here, so I stick to what I know a little about technology, I leave it to learned people to do programming
