An awesome resource for beginners in WordPress and web development community!

I'd like to address another problem which can be stated as one of the reasons why these youngsters are not doing great. While it is good to learn a new skill and it’s true that learning it can make you rich or help you get the dream job, there is a hard reality packaged with this deal. That hard reality is confusion. By learning a lot of stuff without proper workflow and guidance, you don’t really find the perfect solution which leads to a never-ending state of being confused.

To sell their courses and earn a few bucks, internet marketers have de-stablized the young minds. The presence of so many options and the absence of a true path to follow, which could lead to a successful career, has left the beginners in the middle of nowhere.

It makes me think if what we had i.e. next to no options, was it a better time or this learn-anything-you-want age can still be preferred. While there is an argument about everything I said, facts remain the same and confusion is ever increasing.

I think what's missing is the ingredient of patience and hard work. One needs to stick to a field of at least a year or two and then decide if it is not working out well. Contributing to WordPress Core and building free open source plugins or themes can be a big step in the right direction.
