I love coding because of the flow state I can achieve when I'm working undisturbed for hours. Unfortunately, I don't have much time for coding anymore.
I love coding.
For me, coding is creativity and it takes me to a kind of parallel world where there are no problems other than completing what I have to do.
Sure, ĆØ anche il mio lavoro, but I love coding so much that I do it beyond the canonical working hours, during holidays, public holidays, Saturdays, Sundays... I'm basically a chronic programmer š
Definitely do it for the money! But if you can find something you enjoy that also pays well, that's the ideal. Coding skills are in high demand and companies will pay top dollar for talented developers. Don't sell yourself short - your coding abilities are valuable. That said, it helps a ton if you have some passion for it too. Makes the work much more enjoyable and helps you excel. Best case is getting paid well to do something you love.
Of course I enjoy coding - that's why I got into this field in the first place! But let's be real, the money is a nice perk too. Why not get paid well to do something you love, amirite? ;) That said, when passion becomes obligation it can start to feel like a grind. So I try to keep a balance and take on projects I find interesting and rewarding, not just the highest paying gigs. Do what you love and (hopefully) the money follows!
Absolutely! I love coding. It really helps me feel organized and gives my spirit a boost. Iām passionate about my job in software development. Whenever we launch a new product, I feel like Iām creating something that genuinely helps people.
