I'm not looking for advice on time management or anything like that. It's more that I see these developers with portfolio sites with all these projects and apps and cool stuff and I wonder how to become a developer like that. They seem so productive and capable, and I feel like I can't finish anything. I get that I'm comparing my livestream to their highlight reel so to speak, but I really feel like my development/programming skills are very subpar compared to most developers. I've been programming for 5 years and I can't think of any functioning, well-crafted piece of software I've shipped that I'm proud of, in my work or in my personal life.
Some of this is that I'm feeling demotivated at my current job, I've gotten some negative feedback, some of it is office politics, but some of it is fair. The thing that I think is fair is that I can't seem to actually deliver or ship anything and be truly productive. IDK, how do I enter the flow state and start making software I'm proud of showing off? Either in my work or in my personal projects?
