DESCRIPTION
============
If you’re learning to code and feeling unsure whether you’re even on the right path anymore - this video is for you.

In this video, I break down three real tech paths every beginner should understand: development, AI-assisted work, and cybersecurity.

Not to tell you which one to choose - but to help you understand where you are right now , how these paths actually differ, and why learning often feels confusing when no one explains the bigger picture.

We’ll also take a calm, beginner-friendly look at cybersecurity - not because it’s "better", but because it’s one of the few tech paths most beginners never get to experience safely or clearly early on.

If you’ve been jumping between tutorials, tools, and opinions - this video will help things finally make sense again.

You’re not behind - you didn’t choose the wrong thing - you just needed a clearer map.
