What is your greatest accomplishment outside of your career?
So far, mine will be on Monday when I celebrate three years of marriage 😁

Developing my guitar skills to the point that I can jam with nearby bands. The rush of performing live music and interacting with the audience is totally different. Coding is fantastic, but nothing can compare to those performances.

@jackkdavies26 for sure! Playing with bands in college as a hip hop artist was super fun. I’m trying to figure out how incorporate open mics into my life again.
@psd @shajedulkarim_ Some 🏀 stories here: https://www.instagram.com/voyant... I'll add a 3pointer streak ASAP 😬 😅
@olearningcurve Very nice! It's all math really, if you have a nitrate of 60% on 3 pointers. Statistically it will only take you 1452 shots to hit 10x in a row. 😅 or something along those lines. Im sure we can ask GPT for the correct break down.
My greatest accomplishment outside of my career is undoubtedly receiving my mother's love. Her unconditional support, guidance, and affection have shaped me into the person I am today. Her love has been a constant source of strength, inspiration, and comfort throughout my life. I consider it a tremendous achievement to have such a loving and caring mother by my side.
@thedontgetrekt you got a skill that pays the bills! congrats on launching aiwizard as well. Do you code for a living or it’s just a hobby?
hey Peyt, warm congratulations on three years of marriage! an exquisite dance of love and understanding that sure is.
on your question, i pondered it, and realized it's not so much about grand feats or public recognition. it's in the quiet moments, the spaces in between, where my most treasured accomplishments reside.
for me, it’s learning to weave stillness into my life, embracing solitude without it morphing into loneliness. it's about finding that internal rhythm, that sense of peace even amid the storm. that's my climb, my Everest.
it's an ongoing journey, each day a step, each moment an opportunity. it's about nurturing a compassionate relationship with myself, with the world around me.
isn't it beautiful how we all have different yet equally meaningful ways to gauge accomplishment? eager to hear more perspectives.
let's keep exploring,
Karim
I ran a marathon, can you believe it? Me, a programmer, running 26.2 miles. Took months of training but crossing that finish line? Incredible feeling. Goes to show, we aren't just our code!
@j87amanda impressive 👏👏👏 how long did you train for and what did you eat to stay in marathon shape?
Becoming fluent in Spanish. No apps, no classes, just a backpacking trip through South America. Nothing like ordering your dinner or haggling in a market to really learn a language! Makes Duolingo look like a walk in the park.
@j_lopez_226 how long was the trip? Did you know zero Spanish before going?
I built a treehouse for my kids. No kits, just raw materials, power tools and a vision. Nailed the safety standards too. Best part? The kids loved it.
@perry88_s that’s awesome and sounds like lots of reading 😂 how long did it take from ideation to finished project?
