Explore the habits and career tactics that create remarkable developers. Take control of your career, and set yourself apart from the pack. Become an Outlier.

As a developer, your image and your mind are your product. So to get what you’ve never had, you must do what you’ve never done with these precious tools. If you want to make a bigger impact, raise your income, and code with purpose, this course will outline the path to get you there. This course is about making a paradigm shift in how you manage your career. We’ll discuss concrete activities and skills that transform average developers into outliers. You’ll learn why developers can't afford cable, ways to improve your “luck surface area”, and techniques to compress your career through accelerated development. You'll learn the foundational skills for becoming an outlier: command your time, hack your image, and own your trajectory. Prepare to think about your development career in a whole new way.
