For a long time, I have been grappling with confusion regarding my personal development path, exploring various areas of software such as iOS, Rust, Go, C++, and more. Last night and today, I made the decision to step back a bit. During this reflection, I came to the realization that my approach to development ambitions was flawed. Understanding that not everything can be pursued simultaneously, I acknowledged the need to solidify my foundational knowledge first. Therefore, I decided to let go of my scattered efforts and focus on strengthening my fundamentals.

If the foundation of the house is not strong, the roof will rise in vain.

Similarly, in my journey of self-development, I've come to recognize the importance of building a solid foundation. Without a robust base, my efforts to explore diverse areas of software were akin to constructing a fragile structure. Now, my focus is on reinforcing my fundamentals, ensuring a stable groundwork for my future endeavors.
