My mentor at my first dev job once told me: “You will never make it to Junior 2.” Why? Because I asked a question about a technology I had never used before. The next day HR and the CEO scheduled a call. I was fired for that same reason. Now imagine if I had a weak mindset. That moment could’ve convinced me I wasn’t good enough. That I should quit coding. But I didn’t. I laughed and kept going. 4 years later: • I have 3 apps making money • I code better than that mentor • I make more than I did at that job And more importantly, I learned things that job would never have taught me: Infrastructure. Security. Marketing. Finance. So in a way… they were right. I was never meant to make it to Junior 2. I was meant to be CEO and CTO of my own things.

While I package my free Claude Code Essentials course and then proceed to pull 12 hour work days to ship my free Claude Certified Architect study course, let me you behind the scene for a moment. For the past 10 years I’ve tried to make high-quality cloud/tech courses freely available. This is a personal choice I made, because it's what I want to do for you my tech community. To make this happen I’ve structured my life around keeping costs as low possible so I could continue doing this, even when it wasn’t the most financially sensible path. But the reality is that producing these courses takes an enormous amount of time and resources. The model only works if enough people support it in small ways subscribing, sharing the content, or supporting the paid offerings that help fund the free material. If my 50 free courses have helped you in your career in the last decade. Please consider the small things like following or subscribing to my own Youtube channel. It makes a bigger difference than most people realize. For those who have been supporting us all these years, you are the real hero's because I simply would have never been able to do it without you.
