# My 2021 Budget!!!

My 2021 Budget! Not about money though. I feel budget could be anything depending on the context. I think I'm right, I mean I hope so.
With that being said, My 2021 Budget.

### My 2020?

I'll be honest(it is pretty obvious though), 2020 was really tough. Besides the covid surprise, I still tried to keep things going at my own pace but oh well, that didn't exactly turn out well but... but... I tried. I started the year with just html, css and little bit of php and here's how it turned out,

1. I became proficient with  [Laravel](https://laravel.com/).
2. Built and worked with a couple api's.
3. Used a few Google services(location api's, analytics etc).
4. Built an e-commerce store(not yet fully in production).
5. Server setup from scratch on  [Digital Ocean](https://www.digitalocean.com/)  using nginx.
6. Worked with a couple front end frameworks mainly  [vuejs](https://vuejs.org/)  and  [nuxtjs](https://nuxtjs.org/) . They are definitely amazing.
7. Got 3 job rejections. Sad but I think I'm amazing.
8. Battled with Wordpress at some point.
9. Built a Laravel package for generating and managing discount coupons.
10. I made constant efforts to organise my projects workflow using  [Trello](https://trello.com/).
11. Worked on a few projects using  [Django](https://www.djangoproject.com/).

There's probably a few that I've missed out but I think I did amazing still. The sad part still is that the outcome didn't exactly match the effort but we move!


### My 2021?

Well, I personally feel my coding journey so far has been a little distorted. So for this year, I'll like to be a little more purposely. I'll like to focus a lot more on open source, it looks amazing and I'll also like to learn a couple new languages and frameworks(nodejs, python, tailwindcss etc). I'm also open and looking forward to joining a team and building amazing projects together. It'll definitely be amazing if I get to speak at a tech event and also attend one. Lastly, this is my year of technical writing, hopefully.


I've tried to keep this as simple as possible and also realistic. I hope this year turns out amazing.

Looking forward to my next post!
