Well done!!
It was really interesting to read your story.
I had one question, what were the things or thoughts that made you stay persistent? What was your motivation?😁

Thanks so much!

To answer your question about what kept me motivated was that I didn't want to go to college because I'm not the biggest fan of sitting in classes that I am not interested in. So my promise to myself is that I would not attend school but work on learning something new everyday and continuing to improve my skills. The thoughts that I had running through my head were that I could do what I wanted as long as I kept continuing to grow as a developer.
