Can you balance career and lifestyle?

Being consistent in your career, lifestyle, and other aspects of your life is difficult at least for some people like me. I simply want to work for 8 hours each day before going to bed. It becomes boring to do this every day, but I still try to sometimes post on social media to let people know that I'm still alive. I create content like a baddie and bless people with my pretty pictures. I'm making an effort to balance my lifestyle with my career. It works for others, therefore I can be sure that it will work for me.

I figured out how to make tech fun for me so I started a tech content account on Tiktok. I share programming tips and go live sometimes to talk to my followers to create a bond. Starting it was really difficult because I always felt people won't listen to whatever I had to say and I might feel bad about the outcome.

One day, while listening to Sunday morning summon the pastor asked "What is holding you back from achieving your goals? what are you afraid of doing? Why not face your fears instead of running away from them." It was like he was talking to me directly so the next day which was Monday while about to rest I remembered what I promised myself yesterday and I picked up my phone to record all the portfolio websites I'd built which was the only content idea I could think of. I did that and in less than 30 mins I got 200 views on the video.

I was so happy and decided to create more content by sharing programming tips I come across while coding and 2 months time I got 10k followers who loved my content. It's fun for me because I love content creation and doing content creation in tech was on another sweet level.

When I feel overwhelmed from coding, I go live on TikTok to talk to people who can relate and we laugh and make jokes. I felt I have achieved my goal of balancing my tech and life somehow or not.

The point of this is "Make what you have to do fun!"
