Building a developer career that will give you freedom and purpose
summary
Argues career clarity comes from concrete what goals plus a guiding why, and a sustainable developer career needs money and multiple income paths: at least three independent income streams. Recommends turning a job, hobby or dream into sellable products (books, mentoring, trainings, tools) so you earn from work already done instead of only trading time for money. Gives concrete examples (write a short book on Amazon for $3–$5, offer paid mentoring, QR payments for vendors) and offers a free short book to start.
