Stop treating data science like a hobby.
Do this instead. 🧵

I know the feeling. Progress is slow.
You’re trying to figure out what to learn.
And there’s no path.
So you’re trying to create one for yourself.
Then you think it doesn’t matter if I take a little longer...
Data science is cool. I’m having fun.
So you add a bunch of stuff like deep learning, math, statistics, and theory to your plan.
And you follow a ton of influencers on LinkedIn.
But every time you see them post a new “shiny” object and you get distracted.
Then… 3 years go by.
And you haven’t made much progress.
This is the problem I faced.
And it’s exactly why having a plan is so critical to your success.
What you might not realize is that 3 years of slowed progress actually cost me $150,000.
I could have been making a lot more money.
Because there’s a Return On Investment.
So stop treating data science like a hobby.
Instead, treat data science like it’s your business.
Here's how:
1. Make a plan
This is your business plan for becoming a data scientist.
2. Incorporate essential skills
NOT waste-of-time skills
3. Make sure the skills get you closer to your goal
Otherwise immediately stop learning them.
4. Invest in learning the skills as fast as possible
...So you make your time and money investments back quickly.
Now you’re probably thinking sounds great but how do I make a plan?
And what should I include?
I’d like to help.
I put together a free presentation that includes the 10 most important skills that helped me become a data scientist.
This presentation would have immediately cut my journey in half.
What's Your Next Step?
All you need to do is watch my 10-skills training, take notes on my blueprint for becoming a data scientist, then learn the skills.
