It's fun because the more I expose myself to techie things (podcasts, Twitter, CodeNewbie) the more I realize how wide and varied the tech field is. I hope more people these days can get that exposure, to any careers they may be interested in, sooner.
I also have a tendency to dive in head first and then get overwhelmed. Oops! I'm hoping little bits here and there instead of trying to do marathon coding sessions on weekends or in the evening will help keep me going without burning me out.
100 hours of coding over the next year is a great goal! Small and easy to track, like you said. I find those sorts of goals to be confidence-boosting as well, which then turns into being able to hit more goals, and so on. A nice way to build a goal-achieving engine for yourself.
Good luck, Jacob!
