Just.
Pick.
One.
And.
Go.
It doesn't matter which one. #python, #javascript, #rust, #cairo, #solidity, are all great languages.

Build SOMETHING will be the fastest way to reach the next step and WILL BE YOUR RESUME in the #web3 world.
Then, you can join a community like @developer_dao, @SCRForum, @chainlink discord, @hardhat discord, #python #ethereum discord, @StackOverflow and more.

Hackathons like the @chainlink hackathon will force you to take that next step, give you a deadline, so you have to build something cool!
And even if you don't build something cool, you'll learn LOADS along the way.

Everyone's path is going to look different. It's not a race. There is no first place, there is no last place.

Maybe it takes you a week, a month, a year, a few years.
It's ok.
