- As a business graduate whose brain was melting playing around with tabs in an Excel sheet, I decided to learn to code. In this video I detail my 3 month journey.

Sorry about the loud 'ding' sounds when images are presented in the video. This was one of my first videos and I wasn't so hot at editing yet! Please forgive me! 🙌
That's absolutely fine bro 🤜
And thanks for this video 🙌
I just realized your name...
U forgive us everyday Jesus, for one time u ask I forgive u.
You are forgiven, my son......
Can you tell us what books did you read and what online courses you took to learn?
This guy taught himself C++ on his own, not much people has such courage 🙏
In 3 months? Ok.
@@errorgrisha this is just funny, isn't it?
@@heavydirtysoul1491 I suppose that 3 months is too long. In nowadays people should learn CPP faster than 24 days!
I learned c++ in 5 days .
Only morons like you think its that difficult.
That's really cool.
I am 52yo and learned C++ all by myself in 1991-1992.
This led me to code damn cool systems and understand how the system worked under the hood.
Fast forward to present day, I am running my own business since 22+ years and everything had been paid by writing code, specs, and stuff related to code in this beauty of a place I would never ever have dreamed of when I was debugging low level concurrent serial port code in the corner of the bedroom. Code is power.
thanks for putting out this information and telling us about your journey. I have always struggled with code but also always knew that I really need to be just sitting down and forcing myself to know it intimately if I want to really get a good job somewhere. I look forward to watching more of your videos and reaching out from time to time when I get discouraged with the process. thanks again.
I always keep coming back to this video for some direction!
I've been coding professionally for +20 years and enjoyed this video very much. You have the drive to do what most don't.
Hey hii could guide how IT course choose
Great video, inspiring stuff! I chipped away at coding for an hour or two a day for a year before learning full-time for 8 weeks until I get my first job. It's a grind but one I'll never regret
I love you in a brotherly way 😎 thank you for using your energy to teach us your wisdom and understandings 🙏
It's incredible that you did ALL of this in just 3 months. Honestly, I would have have sat just with one of these for more than 3 months. Shows me where and what I need to work on(mostly mental). Thanks for this video. Hope you upload more content
This video is perhaps the best guide to learn anything you want. Currently implenting it, and I got to say. It works like a charm!
This video is completely unedited, and he really talks about his experiences, I love this guy.
I really believe that you can learn to code in 3/4 months, but learning to code well takes time
Could I learn it well enough to get a job, if I only worked 30 hours out of a 4 day work week ( keep in mind at my job we work 10 hour shifts) and spent 6 hours on my days off practicing coding each day for 3 months, studying MOOC’s, and keeping logs of notes?
@R3BOUCAS sim :D
Anyone can learn to code but çoding good is tuff
@R3BOUCAS boa mano, vai estudando bastante e se dedicando que vc consegue
@@bassplayer807 It depends on many factors. What do you want to learn, where do you want to work, what background do you have and how can you represent yourself? Also how smart are you and how used to teaching yourself are you?
Search for a promising technology and start to learn it. Maybe think about a small project you'd like to do and work on it. At the same time you should learn about coding fundamentals and good coding practices.
Good luck and keep on it. Learning to code is hard in the beginning, but the longer you keep going the more rewarding it will be :)
Coding Jesus you are great man. Really love your content. Big Fan :)
Thank you
great video, love your motivation! It's inspiring.
I love you story. Watch your video for the second time today. I find that it's hard to focus in on one thing and you have done a great job of it. Technology is such a large topic. Thank you for the video, honesty, the passion, and energy you bring to us. Again thank you. There are so many youtubers with videos out there and you can tell it's not genuine and honest.
I needed to hear this! Thanks
Simply the best video I've watched, about it! Thanks Jesus!!!!
Wow. Love your energy, thanks for sharing!
It's all about the energy ❤️🙌
What a story! Well told. Good on you! And thanks for sharing. This can be a useful lesson for young minds considering their options.
One of the best vids on this subject I've seen on YT, and I've seen a lot.
Thank you! Please share if you enjoyed it.
Thank you for your story, sir. I’m 30, CFA L3, work in IB, but I started to feel what you felt in PE companies :) the pure finance / lead advisory practice is enough for me. Your story gives me a hope.
LOVE the descipline!
This was so helpful. Thank You for making this video!

Loved this! just what i needed to hear and find out about! thanks man :-)
No problem
Thanks for the advice bro! Im on a similar path, just did 4 years of business and honestly, I feel like if a person wants to study business take micro/macro economics and watch CNBC for 6 months. Alot of business comes down to policies and procedures and studying algorithms and being able to create software puts you in a much more powerful position in a business setting. I'm self studying programming and will use you tips. Thanks again.👍
Awesome!
This channel is a hidden gem! I really love your videos CJ!
A degree that costs a lot but qualifies you for nothing. Whew I felt that I went to art school LMFAOOO
LOL! Yes... It's unfortunate..
Art isn't that bad. With art you have background in design, with design you have a lot of opportunities out there, specially in front-end.
I think you can get into UX research or front end with that art degree
@@clowndriver5576 yea I eventually went that route. I went to code bootcamp though. With art it still depends on the kind of art you major in. A lot of people who don’t major in industrial or graphic or interior design are screwed lol
Plus art is sooo saturated. That’s really the point too. I have a ton of friends that went the coding / UI/UX route and couldn’t find a job, hell I barely found one. Now I do 3D rigging which has a higher chance of getting a job :) but I went to school for medical illustration so I had to take extra classes
Thank you for sharing your story!! 🙏☺️
No problem 😊
So informative. So motivational. Great job!

Awesome content Coding Jesus.Thanks for the video.
Thanks :)
Great stuff! Appreciate your confidence 👍
I appreciate that!
@condingjesus1 fake
Cool video and great advice...Thanks for sharing
Everytime I feel down, I just come and re-watch this video and it gives me some motivation. Then i go back and try understand WTF is Djikstra Algorithm
This moment I just have a cellphone and no laptop or desktop, but this inspires me to code with what I have in hands or gaining more estabilished focus starting from that point. (Also using this comment as a notebook for picking up important stuff):
1. Books
2. Videos.
3. Leetcode problems
4. Pet Projects
Me too buddy
Holy crap man I've been watching you and you were interested in so much stuff I was and now in this video you mention Cave Story. My favorite game lol. Thanks for the vid.
Thanks, I needed to hear this 👏
He really did this in one take. You sir are fantastic.
Yes. This year I started with some pet projects.
1) an etl tool
2) an awk clone for windows
3) a scripting language whose main feature is talking to serial and network connected devices
very cool with the pet projects, agree that a portfolio is important but yours were quite outside the box
Thanks for sharing this was very insightful
I need to make the leap!
one of the best videos out there and i've seen a shit ton.
Thanks!
Wow, can fully relate to your experience. I'm currently doing the job I don't really like and I wanna become an iOS developer. Will make a career change within half a year from now.
Still switched careers?
His advices are pretty practical.
Grab that book and learn your basics! And drill those leetcode, but 300 of them is too much... 100 should be more than enough as long as your practices are deliberate.
If you want those good size company and good salary, you will need those basics and leetcode - unless you have got some super duper awesome unforgettable projects.
Such a Great video and insightful. Currently doing the 100 days of code on Udemy for Python.
Thanks TH-cam algorithm for this wonderful video. I think I got this suggested Because of leet code. But wonderful journey sir. I definitely got inspired to do those crams more rigourously
You are most welcome
never been this motivated , currently working in a non I.T field but my goal n heart is in I.T
thanks for sharing this !
You got this!
Hey Dude,
It’s been 3 years now, have you made the transition?
Im on it brother, still on jnr front end dev
The end goal cybersecurity
@@meeknkosi that’s awesome man, all the best!
@@AdityaGupta-je9vh thanks mate!
Coding Jesus... the greatest name on YT, great video! :)
Great video! Can you also make a video on how your days looked like in those 3 months when you were learning how to code? It would be interesting to learn more about your study techniques/approaches and if you used coffee etc. to overcome fatigue. That would be very interesting and helpful for a lot of people. Thank you for your great content!
Very good content, keep on moving 👍
Thank you! Will do!
Damn bruv this channel is fire🔥, how is it so underrated.
I subscribed because of your name and the thumbnail 🤣 man really is coding Jesus huh
:D
i am an experienced programmer, i recently learned i suck at algos and data structures. i feel exactly as you are. i recently failed. i am going to start over
This is such, such, such such a great video.
Good job!
Thank you so much man! I’m doing a masters program but they only do classes based around JAVA and I would love to be more on the fin tech side- are there any other languages you would recommend on top of C++ like SQL or something?
I subbed to you coz you inspired me to never quit coding well cya bro
f school
havent got the time to code
i still do but just when i have the free time
still studying pre cal
Bro, the aesthetics of your room 😍

Great video!
Thanks for watching! If you haven't already, give it a like
Coding Jesus - I’m here to be blessed! Show me the way!
Personally this the video I am looking for. I am also learning C++ by my own and currently I am about start learning DSA. And Suprisingly I also have interest in finance market. My interest in finance market lead to me learn about trading so I taught myself how to understand chart pattern which Popularily known as technical analysis. I always used to think that how can I link both this knowledge and then I found your video dude. Thanks for sharing, this it gave me a lot of clarity about my next step....!!
thank you, it is very helpful
thnks for the video..i tried to learn java..i got as far as arrays...man it was sooo hard,but looking at this video,i think ima give it another try.Im going to try C++
I actually been looking into learning how to code because of crypto as well! I don’t have any background when it comes to tech. Thank you for this video!
Thank you so much ❤
Always welcome
Great Video thanks
12 hours a day, wow! And here I was thinking of myself as hardcore with 4 hours a day😂
Daaang baby!!!!
Tomer DUDE! TH-cam just randomly suggested and autoplayed this video and now I'm officially weirded out! I was like "WAIT - I KNOW THAT GUY!", and right then I hear you start talking about learning q/KDB+ at BitMEX where I literally used to help you with that on the reg haha! Looks like you caught some serious inertia back then, congrats!
-Conner
I BLINDLY TRUST YOU MAN ❤❤
underrated channel.
This is the exact fucking video i was searching for.
Thank You Jesus
I found the guy very genuine. Thanks for Sharing your journey. It helped me. Pls share your linkedin profile link
I don't use LinkedIn, I have a video on why I don't.
@@CodingJesus okay :) but anyway thanks for this video
@@vishutunes No problem
Plural sight is awesome!
I love your channel’s name!

@condingjesus1 as if pal. Reporting you instead
Congrats, impressive!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hey Jesus, I am loving your videos. I am wondering what books you used to learn C++.
Hi Coding Jesus! Chanced upon your channel yesterday and I must say you make great educational videos! I just graduated from an engineering degree and I find most entry-level engineering jobs require a some what decent level of coding experience. Since last year during lockdown, I have been trying to learn how to code and create simple applications, but I get really lazy and unmotivated at times. Yea but leetcode problems are way over my level :( My friends said its because my understanding of Data structures and algo is not strong. What are some books you might recommend and how do you stay focused?
I have videos on which books are recommended for data structures and algorithms.
Very Inspiring
Thank you!
oh yeah. a guy who just thought 'I like C++' and learned it. much respect.
Your username made me click on this vid, and the actually helpful tips had me subscribed. I needed to hear that bit about interviewing first with companies you don't actually wanna work at .. to practise.
Cheers
I don't know about others, but you are my Coding Shiva
The gift that you have, and I'm sure you're aware of this on some level, is that you know what you want (you knew you didn't want to do front-end web development, and that you wanted something specifically related to finance), and you have the drive and the wherewithal to do it. I want to learn to code really mainly to move on from the retail job that I have, and also to hopefully be involved in game development someday. Is there a language you would recommend for that specifically? C++ is intimidating to me and I've also been given to understand that you should really know more than one anyway, so I've already bought a book on Python, but like you, I don't really want to do web development.
Probably the best video I've watched so far. Would love it if you can share your syllabus on the topics you've covered in the 3 months (high level). I'd offer to pay for it ;P
Thank you! This is definitely something I'm thinking of doing.
Bump
Good video buddy.
Thanks for the visit
CJ, you've just established my next 2 years
Thank you for this my precious coding lord 🙏amen.
🙌
@Quantum_AI Shut up.
@Quantum_AI My uncle is an AI Hive-Mind, and I find your name offensive to his sensibilities.
Thank you
it's cool , thanks.
Your method is exactly what i did but with python (minus books, because python is luckily quite easy and doing pet projects is enough) after a corporate finance degree. Now, i'm leading towards c++ and wanted some guidance and it seems that my initial method could work again, but with a bit more efforts :)
I am also strangely confused by the fact that this video has been posted on my birthday haha
What pet projects would you recommend to learn python?
Happy Birthday
what was ur Algorithm when u turned water into wine?
loved this video!
Perfect 👍
6:16 i keep coming back for this
For finance...or let's say trading application ( e.g. : quant) developers, do you think Python would be easier for beginner ?
Can you share the books you used in the description? Thanks!
dude , to build a game and play it with your interviewers. legendary
dude phenomenal advice but please watch audio levels on sound when a text/image is displayed as it is unnecessarily loud
Will do. This video was made when I was still new on TH-cam and editing. Thanks for watching and the advice.
Can you please share the "Bond Pricer" project link again? It doesn't work for me.
Thanks
