If you are just starting your career in the tech field and you are not very much familiar with the field then you need to take care of a few mistakes that a beginner makes.

It takes a much longer time to understand the topics or sometimes they are never able to understand the topic when beginners are making the same mistakes. It seems overwhelming to beginners that it's really difficult to make a career in tech and understand all the topics that they are trying to learn if they are making some common mistakes.

Here, I am sharing my own experience that how you can overcome the mistakes that a beginner makes and you can have a good career in tech.

As a beginner in coding, it is easy to get overwhelmed with the amount of information and concepts you need to learn. Here are some common mistakes to avoid as you embark on your coding journey:

Not having a clear goal in mind: Before you start learning to code, it's important to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve. Are you interested in building websites, creating mobile apps, or developing software? Having a clear goal will help you stay motivated and focus on the most relevant skills and technologies.

Skipping the basics: It's tempting to jump straight into the more advanced topics, but it's important to spend time mastering the basics. This includes concepts such as data types, variables, loops, and control structures. Without a solid foundation, you will struggle to understand more complex topics.

Not practicing enough: Learning to code is not just about reading tutorials and watching videos. It's important to actually get your hands dirty and write code on your own. This is the only way to truly understand how things work and to improve your skills.

As a beginner, it's natural to have questions and encounter problems. Don't be afraid to ask for help from more experienced developers or to seek out resources such as forums and online communities.

Not staying up to date: The world of technology is constantly evolving, and it's important to stay up to date with the latest developments. Make an effort to keep learning and expanding your skillset, even after you have achieved your initial goals.

Communities: Most of the successful people in the tech world belong to certain communities. They may be online communities based on discord like "Eddiehub" or "Commit Your Code" and maybe a community that organizes offline events for tech-related stuff. The Tech community is a place where some people know your problem's solution and they will help you to resolve your tech problem. Even you can share your experiences with people who are just entering the tech world. Communities will provide a path, collaboration, how to ask questions and engage in discussion and make your goal achievable as you are surrounded by these kinds of amazing people. Some of them may be working with very big organizations and may have a vast amount of experience, and their suggestions could be a boon for people who are beginners in the field. Join Communities but don't join too many communities otherwise, you wouldn't be able to take benefits from these communities.

Tutorial Hell Cycle: The worst thing that can happen with people who have just started to learn Coding is being stuck in Tutorial Hell. Tutorial Hell is a term that is used when a person watches the tutorial to make functionality to the project or build a whole project by watching the tutorials and after completing the project with the help of tutorials and thinks that I understood the topic but comes back again for the next project to watch same tutorials. This cycle never ends and the person is never able to understand the topic. The best way to come out of "Tutorial Hell" is by building real projects using docs or other stuff.

By avoiding these common mistakes, you will be well on your way to becoming a successful coder. Good luck!
