It’s easy to feel like you need to master everything at once in Worlds. In this workshop, MKE_TheGuru gets real about the ups and downs of being a solo developer—how to pace yourself, set focus goals that actually stick, and be honest about your limits while still making progress. You’ll also see how tools like the skills matrix and self-assessment survey can guide your growth, and why community support matters just as much as skill-building.
