Building an online presence puts you out there!
It shows your personality, what you're passionate about, & what you're working on. Depending on how you use it, it can be very beneficial!!

Being self-taught, building an audience opened many doors, and gave me opportunities I never dreamed of!
Joining Tech Twitter has been one of the best decisions I've made, & I'm forever grateful at the community ❤️
It can be an amazing experience, so make the most out of it!

1️⃣ Be your authentic self!
This is probably THE MOST important. By being yourself, you're able to better connect with people because you're relatable.
Yes, people like to learn, & knowledge can add a lot of value. But, don't be afraid to admit that you don't know something!

Part of being a dev is that we're all CONFUSED AF😂
By admitting you don't know something or showing your failures, you're normalizing it.
This helps people realize that it's totally okay not to know shit. You're able to relate to others, & them to you. That's fucking awesome!

2️⃣ Engagement is key!
Not only engagement on your posts, but mostly how you engage with others on the platform.
Whether you use the platform to network or making friends, Twitter is literally THE conversation app. Use that to your advantage.
Keep things genuine & engage!!😆

Interacting with people's posts and DMing them helps!
However, keep in mind that none of this should be transactional, in my opinion. There's nothing wrong with business, but I think that keeping things genuine and having good intentions is a far more better experience 😄

3️⃣ Content creating is no joke!!
Creating content takes a lot of time, creativity, & organization!! Having brain farts is totally normal 😂
Once you start creating content, you find your niche along the way. Find out what you enjoy. It gets easier over time.

Also, you gotta love what ur producing. It reflects on your work. If you love what ur doing, you'll put a lot of effort into it. It'll feel like a breeze instead of a chore.
As long as you're enjoying it, it'll be alright! Stay consistent, and do what you love! 🔥

4️⃣ Learn time management!
I didn't take this into consideration AT ALL because I underestimated how much time it takes to create content😂
But, learning how to manage your time is important AF! Content creating can get stressing when you're juggling different things.

There are a few tools that help you with managing your time!! My 2 personal favorite are FeedHive & Notion 😆
You can use Notion for literally everything. From scheduling your week, to organizing your work.
FeedHive schedules your posts & shows u your social media analytics!

5️⃣ Be strong!
The internet is brutal y'all 😂
Handling negative comments while you're busting your brain to create content is not an easy task AT ALL.
This can take a HUGE emotional toll, so it's important to keep your mental and emotional health on check from time to time.

Have a support system you can fall back to when shit turns sideways, & take care of yourself! ❤️
Remember that it's okay to take breaks when you need to. Everyone on Tech Twitter is essentially doing the same thing, so we all understand that we sometimes need breaks.

6️⃣ Build meaningful connections!
You can get so much out of building meaningful connections. You should make the most out of it!!
Ever since I joined Tech Twitter, I've made amazing friends & became more open minded about my own learning journey.

I found inspiration through many talented people...it's very motivating to see others so determined to reach their goals, and not giving up!!
Also, I realized that there are plenty of ways to learn development, and that everyone goes through their journey at their own pace 😄
