Pick Your Box
Answer two questions honestly. Your box decides your next move.
Question 1: Do I have a degree relevant to the jobs I want?
☐ Yes ☐ No
Question 2: Do I have a practical skill I can prove today, with real work I can show?
☐ Yes ☐ No (Watching tutorials is a start, not proof.)
Box 1: Degree, no skillTarget entry-level roles linked to your degree, and add one practical skill alongside.
Box 2: Skill, no degreeDon't hide behind the missing degree. Build a portfolio, show proof, approach companies directly.
Box 3: BothStrongest position. Target roles that use both.
Box 4: Neither yetSkill first, then the job. Pick a skill the market already pays for.
My box: ________
I need income: ☐ this month ☐ in 3 months ☐ in 6 months
My ONE target role: ______________________________
The ONE skill I'm learning: ______________________________
My 2 protected hours each day: from ______ to ______
If it's "this month", take a stable job first and run the plan in your 2 hours. Your first job is not your last job.
