Amir Hussain — Software Engineer
When I first started out, I though programming was one of the most boring career paths one can possibly choose, but since I was attracted to the handsome salary a successful software engineer could "allegedly" command (it was all hearsay at the time), with very, VERY few other options on the table, I gave myself a year to really try to get into programming and learn as much as I could and hopefully in the process, I would eventually develop a genuine interest in the art of coding - which I luckily did soon afterwards. Within a year, I not only developed an interest in programming, I practically became a zealot, totally obsessed with writing code, it's all I would talk to people about, I spent all my free time coding, constantly refactoring to produce cleaner, higher quality code, it would be a gross understatement to say that I was (still am today) passionate about programming - today, programming is both my hobby and my work, and guess what? It pays even better than what the other people had alleged years ago! However, in my case, it was pure luck, I got lucky, I just happened to push myself into a field I must've had a propensity for all along, believe me, if I never developed a fondness for coding after that first year, I would've walked away a long time ago to pursue other avenues. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it is foolish to force yourself to stay in an industry/job you are not 100% jazzed about - life is too short for that. Prior to programming, I had worked all sorts of odd jobs spanning multiple different industries, some were more tolerable than others perhaps, but overall, I hated each one wholeheartedly with a passion, total night and day compared to how I feel about my work now.
