Yet another great video!
So I read Atomic Habits (technically Heard the Audio book) & started implementing this!
Jan 1st 2022 i weighed around 90kgs! The sole goal of 2022 was to become healthy & build a habit of working out at least 5 days a week & eating healthy & sleeping early (and atleast 7 hrs a day!)
So i planned my day accordingly & had these sticky notes right in front of me to remind me of my goals .. and day in and day out i repeated the same things over n over again. In the course i was demotivated multiple times but there comes the magic of discipline. I just did it for the sake of it until its a habit now & i enjoy it than ever!
Same the started with my DSA prep goal last Dec 2022! Its been a month now(Jan 2023) & i have been solving on avg 3-5 problems on weekdays (given my erratic work hours) & 10 problems on weekends! I know I am not there yet but am sure with these baby steps, I will be there soon!
Result :
1. I am 65 kilos right now & all my blood works came perfect by gods grace!
2. I cook my own food & do mindful eating
3. Much more aware of my mind and health
4. I sleep by 11 (most f the days) & sleep 7 hrs!
5. I meditate at least 10 mins ( working on improving that too)
6. Already solved over 100+ problems in leetcode (mostly easy ones )
5. Learnt to say a blunt "NO" to people!
You’re an inspiration for many. Thanks for sharing your story.
Wow! 100+ Leetcode problems, that's awesome. I'm slowly breaking into DSA. Leetcode was to hard lol so I'm take a udemy course first. Wish me luck.
Now u gotta bulk and see the weight start going up 😈
Your story really helped me right now.
I would also recommend to pray to God every day to thank Him and pray for your family and people in need because we all need His help. God bless.
What does DSA stand for?
I completely agree with this 100%! A lot of us self taught developers or anyone trying to break into tech may have some doubt that we aren’t smart enough ect, but it really comes down to creating a habit or behavior. 95% of our lives is controlled by our subconscious because it’s a habitual mind and a behavior mind. If you can control your subconscious, you can control your life. Good luck to everyone on this journey!
I’ve been in the software industry for 30 years - but taught myself to code way back in the late 70s, starting first with machine/assembly language. I have to be honest, I couldn’t imagine learning to code just to get into the industry and earn money. I learned to code because I was absolutely passionate and fascinated by computers…..I coded because I loved doing it, and spent nearly every spare moment coding. The fact that I finally ended up working as a developer and earning good money was incidental….I ended up getting well paid for something I was already doing. Almost all the best developers I’ve worked with have this trait, the love of programming comes first, and then the money is the reward.
Must be nice
Are you from india ?
Very cool, it’s a blessing to be able to have a career in something you are passionate about. I’m trying to pick up Python from a beginner book by Charles Severance, unfortunately it’s starting to collect dust.
That was truly inspiring 🥰
@@_AnuragSharma - No I’m from the U.K. - I started working as a mechanical engineer and later transitioned into software in my late 20s - I’ve pretty much retired now.
This is so helpful! I love the 2-minute rule concept. Speaking of productivity, I recently added the Astirna New Tab extension and it's made my browsing so much smoother.
I have 30 days left in 2024, and I’m currently at a low point, feeling overwhelmed and unproductive. Most of my days are slipping away with nothing but sleeping and scrolling, but I’ve decided I can’t let this continue into 2025. I’m challenging myself to use the next 30 days to build good habits and improve myself before the year ends. This video will serve as my journal to track my progress and keep me motivated. I’ll document my journey here as a commitment to becoming better.
Are you into coding?
Are you doing better now? It’s been 1 month since you commented. But can’t see you documenting it 😃
From this book, you are getting the topic explained. Great.
MY GOD THIS IS JUST IT. I have figured out all this on my own a few weeks ago. And I am today watching a video on it. Thank you God and Sahil. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Hey Sahil, I just wanted to drop a comment and thank you for everything. I followed your instructions and landed my first software development job, transitioning from mechanical engineering. I could resonate a lot with your journey and you have no idea how much I appreciate you for making these video. I wish you all the good luck and success in the world. Thanks!
That’s great news Mujeer! Good luck with your job. 👍
That was really fast I m still learning DSA!
@@shanmukhasrinivas4883 Quick tip: Don't try to master it, just learn enough to clear interviews.
@@mujeerahmedx hii , am also a mechanical graduate ,searching for jobs.
How did you apply for the companies .can you give some tips
Thanks in advance:)
@sahilandsarra ,@mujeerahmedx
i am a arts student but i want to change my carrier in web development ....learnt many things like Html , Css , Javascript,,and currenlty learning React but now i am not able to study or focus on my studies ..tell me some ways to imporve my self.....i don't have a group who can help me or clear my doubts ....I hope you reply....
As iam non cs [bsc wala] and beginner learning how to code. Everytime i feel demoted ,your video gets poped up. Ignites spark inside me . Thank you for motivating people like me.
I am a tech newbie...currently undergoing an intense SWE bootcamp organised by ALX, its tough...if, while and for nested loops are still a challenge for me, but I am determined to see it through...thank you so much for this video..nothing good comes easy ❤
Good luck
can you elaborate mre
Alx is a waste of time
I deferred/dropped out...I couldn't comprehend the barrage of new information thrown at me...nested loops, recursion, malloc, file i/o, redirection all within weeks..I wasnt sleeping well, my blood pressure spiked...so I am considering cloud computing or a program with lil or no coding.
@@reality_with_estella you need a mentor. First of all you need to choose a beginner friendly language like Python. You need to understand the basics before you dive into anything complicated. Reach out if you need help and I’ll be down to help. All the best
1. Sometimes it's hard to learn something new, like how to code.
2. But if you do little things every day to help you learn, it can make a big difference.
3. It's like when a plane changes direction just a little bit, it can end up in a different place.
4. You can make good habits by having something that reminds you to start, like using your laptop to start learning to code.
5. It's important to keep doing those little things every day, even if you don't see a big change right away.
6. If you build good habits, you can be really good at coding and get a good job!
#30dayschallenge
I'm preparing for software engineering interviews and i believe this challenge will help me improve my coding skills and work on important algorithms. Thanks Sahil for such a motivational video.
All the Best bro....we are on the same boat!!
How's the progress?
@@adeebsheriff5150 what about you?
Hi Ray, how far have you managed?
are you alive or not ?
My belief is 98% of people need external motivation to move forward. I tried learning to code by myself for years, then I joined a formal course I'm 2 months in to doing 3 hours a day.
Many people do, yes. Most courses for me...or even formal education in general turned me off from pursuing many things, because I spent a lot of hours in the institute itself (I grow tired by people interaction very quickly) and had homework or projects on top of that, plus the pressure knowing that I was going to be graded...
Needless to say, I've done much better on my own because I am self motivated.
@@MoonOvIceCan you explain when did you start coding
2 min rule to get past the valley of dissapointment.the habit loop.cue craving response reward.implementation intentions. habit stacking. temptation bundling. 2 min rule ooptimize. 2 exercises a day.
start small to chnge your life 2 min rule and dont break the chain essential.
You are awesome man, i recently addicted to watching your videos.
Thank you so much for this challenge. No more procrastination.
I'm in!
🙌
Sir, you are the most serious and the most proficient trainer on youtube and that's because you don't learn us how to code but how to become programmers. Thank you so much!
I recently purchased this book however was unclear as to how to use it for beginning my journey of programming/coding hence now you made it clear...... Highly Appreciated Team Power Couple
Thanks Dev
Watching this video for the first time and it really helps, thanks
Today I m student who is going to join college soon ..now i started learning a programming language but after a week,Icuz of lack of motivation and tons of distraction I didn't wanted to learn but from today I m going back To my desk and will start learning . Thanks for this video after 4 year OF CLG ,I wanted to become the software engineer who standout from the crowd!!!!!💯💯
Just bought the Atomic Habits Book from a Book Exhibition nearby. Great that you linked it with coding which will be super helpful as well. Thanks Sahil 👍
Hope you enjoy it! 👍
@@sahilandsarra Thanks 👍
@@sahilandsarra i want your explanation and opinion on chat gpt
Amazing stuff, from today I'm going to start my 30 days challenge and I will definitely come here after 30 days and inform you about my progress :)
You forgot bro :(
Learning whatever but coding should be in center of everything motivation video very nice thanks for sharing
🙏❤️
I appreciate the insights on motivation! It's crucial for learning coding. I’ve started using a new productivity tool that helps me manage my tasks better, maybe I’ll share it once I get the hang of it!
Many has explained using different examples, thanks for choosing programming.. Amazing Video
BRO ALWAYS SPEAKS IN lowercase
😂😂😂😂
Well I just noticed a sentence which goes in my mind when I come across this guy's video.
Jokes apart, nice content 👏👏
😂😂😂

#30daychallange
I am a student who is lacking of time due to academics, I want to improve my programming skills by allocating some time to it.
hope the consistency will be maintained ✊
you have an hour per day to practice. Just have to make the time
Your Video has started motivating me to learn code
What a good background light setup bright yellow complementing the shady blue with a bright faced enthusiastic man sitting in the middle with a black tee. Perfect way to make the man highlighted

Isn't DSA the hardest part 😂😅
Saw this clip on 27 th of March, going strong till now, finished my daily coding session, habit has been built as far as i can retrospect, anyone can do it just have a clear intention of why you're doing it, you'll start to see changes in no time. Time for a confession:"i used to think i was addicted to drugs but the biggest addiction that i had was this damned phone, now I'm away from both. Hoping to stay strong correction I will stay strong. Believe it!. Thx alot sir🙏♥️
It's been an year since you posted this message, if you're still there please reply on your progress and your life in general, I'm just curious :)
take small step. (compound interest)
dont scroll social media
cue+implementation+intention 4:50 stacking_habit dopamine+crave+temptatition bundling 6:30 + 2minute rule
response reward = habit loop
#30daychallenge
be effecient in learning code
I really love that how you speak 🗣️
Thanks Sahil for the video. I really enjoy your content, especially because you are not a computer science graduate, so you really understand the difficulties of being a programmer who is not a computer science graduate and is only self-taught.
Please make content like material that must be mastered by self-taught programmers or a roadmap for non-computer science graduates. Like studying RDBMS, Operating System, or others.
Apart from that, how do you learn databases? do you also study the theories or just learn while working on projects?
Projects for understanding, Theory for interviews
#30dayschallenge
Already have started implementing your tips on learning python. I am much thankful for that vedio guiding on the tips to learn python.
I am feeling the change within me as I am learning 2 exercises/topics each day. I will update my result after 30 day challenge completion. Love your content and the clarity it gives. I was waiting for this vedio of yours as I had already taken "ATOMIC HABBIT" book as a GIFT to MYSELF.
Thanks and keep sharing and linking more concepts into programming from "ATOMIC HABBITS." It will surely help us all!
Sure. Good luck, Shravya
Hey Shravya! Learning python too!
So, all goin' good?
You are awesome 😊
Thanks for the tips.
I am a student learning software engineer at Holberton School.
Still finding it hard to focus.
I am ready to strive up a good habit.
Thanks 👍
Feels like your a A.I Robot and not a human. Literally without any expressions. But your videos are good and to the point. Thanks a lot for the video.
1:00 i feel like ive seen this before..feels familliar!
There's a VS code extension I use often called 'The Software'. It allows me to keep track of the time spent on active coding. Also I keep track of the Github markers on my profile but it doesn't track time. Great lessons for someone like me who picks up the phone after making every push. I have also started using the Windows built-in feature called 'Focus' that helps me work in bundles of 30 minutes with 5 minute breaks much like the Pomodoro Technique. It's best to keep the phone away from sight to avoid distractions.
Thanks for sharing 🙏
I couldn't find 'The Software' extension in VS code and Focus in windows. please help!!

Best advice that I ever heard for SDE in my 2yr experience. Pretty much satisfied with your thoughts. Thanks for sharing!!
Accepting the #30daysChallange for making a dent in my software career journey
Hey! Washing dishes is not boring. It is quite relaxing actually.
The best coding mentor ever. Why? Because unlike others who just beat about the bush on such non-technical but highly important skills relevant to a programmer, Mr. Sahil shares the real solutions. His reference to different books clearly shows his broader horizon of studying a wide range of self-help books.
One of the most interesting videos related to code! Greetings from Colombia!
#30dayschallenge
I've been procrastinating learning React JS for the past 3 months. Today's Jan 20. Before Feb 20, I'll complete learning React for sure. Adding to that, I've solved around 200 problems as of now in Leetcode. I'll be consistent and will cross 100 more problems in this 30 days. I'll make sure, that I understand the algorithm completely and take notes for every single problem I solve. I'll participate in all the contests each week in Leetcode and focus on improving the problem solving capability.
Will reply to this comment here after 30 days after completing the challenge.
🙌
Good job

Thanks for this inspiring video,I aim to finish 30 Leetcode problems by end of this challenge.🤞

#30dayschalkenge At present im in a job which I don't like . I too come from mechanical background but used to love coding during my college days but landed in a job completely different from coding because of my ego , difficult circumstances then.... Now its becoming very difficult to learn coding but your videos gives me inspiration. Thank you
Bro, we share the same life haha. Studied mechanics, loved programming in TurboPascal and Matlab back then and ended up in a job i dont like. Except i started coding 6 month ago after work. End of this year i want tohave my portfolio ready. Lets see!
@@endbreit please share your journey on how your doing and please let me know when you land a coding job
First of all I am following your work from the start.
Great content (Just Smile a little bit).
I am a Computer Student and will complete my bachelors this March and i am planning to abroad to study further so can you make a guided step by step series or something like a video for everyone on how you landed into an abroad university to purse a degree in CS?
Below are some questions which if you can cover then it would be really helpful.
1) How Indians after their bachelors can go abroad to study or for work?
2) Which courses of Computer Science are gonna boom in near future and should be considered to be pursed in abroad universities?
3) How to select a country if that's important?
4) What is the eligibility requirment for an indian to apply outside?
5) What exams should be given and what is the usual average good score being accepted by good university?
6) How to identify a good university because there are a lot?
7) What can be the average expenses one can expect to be spent in an abroad education?
8) To sum up how was your eduction like in abroad?
Hey sahil, I absolutely love your videos. Question, from the first day you wrote code, how long did it took you to get your first job. Thanks
Around 4-5 months.
@@sahilandsarra thank you for replying ❤️
@@sahilandsarra bruhh i took this amount of time to figure out what was going on
@@sahilandsarra It has been more than 1 year that I have started learning to code and also tried to apply for a Developer Job but couldn't get any with no experience. So that, Please help me to get a developer job with no job experience. I will appreciate your help. Thank you.
I love you. You made yourself from zero to hero.
Thanku so much for preventing me to distrack from my goal. Thanks alot.

ive recently gotten around my laziness and have been dedicating some time to coding, this is just an extra but very needed push i needed.
thank you see you in February :D
🙌
Bro even next year February is crossed but still you didnt came here..
#30dayschallenge
Got the book and am going to start reading it everyday while learning to code. Will come here and post my results 😊
Good luck Swarna 👍
@@sahilandsarra Thank you so much
#30dayschallange I'm a second year university student in cs. We have learned python basics and ADTs so far. Now I am expected to learn Java and C for 2 different courses and I have found it pretty challenging. Even the idea of pointers take me a bit to understand. Let's see if I can finish my C Linked concepts and Java OOP materials in 30 days.
keep at it. it will all begin to fall in place. one way to improve is to build projects. that way you have coded something that is practical and you can see the result. also in the real world. programmers build stuff. good luck to everyone in this journey
It's been one month, how's it going?
@wintermoon7991 Update
@@reverbism yea no I couldnt done it at the time failed C course and barely passed the Java one. Now I retook the C class and I am grind like I never before. And idk about a month or anything but I am grinding everyday and I am on top of the class right now for studying as much as I can everyday which sometime even means studying till I pass out. I dont know how healthy it is but it is working like a charm. After all CS is my career so I need to get used to it. So no I am not setting a specific time for myself anymore but studying my courses everyday and trynna learn small but something new everyday as well. I wish all the luck to whoever trying it tho! This is just what worked for me, non-stop study :) (doesnt mean I dont go out or workout before anyone starts those. I do, but instead of social media scrolling, or sleeping 12 hours a day I chose stuyding) GL everyone!
+ because I came to the conclusion that if you have your mindset settled any method will work for you anyway, and vice versa, if you are not motivated and dont want to none of these methods would work not for long term at least. So you need to push yourself into it at some point and WANT to do it. When you start wanting to learn the rest comes with it, you build your own way to learn and your own methods. You realize the times you are at your best and can get more work done at those times. I am saying those because I had watched countless of videos on youtube on "how to study" how to do better, best time to study, best routine, and yes they give you an idea BUT i wish I studied instead of spending that much time on trying to learn how to. Because you end up with learning and doing your own way of things anyway :) Anyway I will go back to studying and I hope this helps the other people who are reading this. Take care people and dont be late on starting what you want to learn and be doing!
Your voice sounds like an asmr ❤😊 so calming
I am up for the challenge starting today. #30daychallenge lets goooo!!
#30 days challenge
How is the progress bro?
My "problem" is that if I try to implement a project, I most likely can put all the little pieces (mostly pieces from Google) together and get the result I wanted. But I could never build those projects I have already successfully achieved without Google. I find it hard to actually "learn" coding when I don't have a plan on how to, so I don't know if I'm a bad programmer or not.
From what you’re explaining here, you’re doing great.
challenge accepted
you are amazing man 👍🏻👍🏻
looks like there is a lot in common
You are really a great person
Yes this is a great application of some of the points in Atomic Habits.
As usual you video is inspiring to my study....❤
Man you’re prolly the calmest person I’ve ever seen
i have read the book two times but have not that much get as you mentioned in your video. and the coding idea of writing code was a great idea will definitely write it.
Thanks for the advice my friend i will come back here 30days later at September 1 exact time which is when school starts also im trying to improve myself and didnt know much about that book so i will also tell the result on reading that book here
How dare you call me out like this 😂. Great content!
It worked for me ❤.. Tq so much
Thank you for this amazing video sahil. I am taking this #30dayschallenge and won't let this down.
#30daychallenge , I have heard about this for a long time, but I have never implemented this. Today, I will start implementing these workouts. Let's see🤗
Great video, I hope I can learn and be familiar with web development.
#30daychallenge for coding. Thank you for the motivation. Will revert in 30 days.

thank you great video could you do other similar with paid courses for backend development and AWS paid courses ?
Thankyou sahil for making this video i know that I am late or 30 day challenge but I will start today only #30 day challenge
Thats a great video 😊
I have been trying to stick to coding for long its being more than 2 year each time after a while i kept on delaying it. And somehow i believe any video can motivate you for short while. But bringing new habit into your lifestyle is hard but never late. So i am now also picking this 30 day challenge. Will be posting there soon with my status.
