A lot of people ask:
“Is tech actually right for me?”
What they’re really asking is:
“Am I making a smart decision or chasing hype?”
That’s a fair concern.
Here’s the truth most people miss 👇
Choosing tech for money, flexibility, or remote work isn’t wrong.
But those reasons alone won’t carry you when things get hard.
The better question is this:
Do I like the process tech requires not just the outcome?
Because tech means:
- Sitting with confusion
- Solving problems that don’t work the first time
- Improving systems, not getting instant wins
You don’t need passion.
You need tolerance for that process.
If you relate to this, tech might be a fit:
- You’re okay being bad before you’re good
- You value progress over perfection
- You’re willing to trade short-term discomfort for long-term leverage
That’s what actually sustains people.
Here’s the real filter to sit with:
Are you choosing tech because you’re running from something or because you’re building toward something?
