Is The Client Always Right?
How many times have you had to grit your teeth, take a deep breath and silently repeat to yourself, "The customer is always right"? This is a motto that's drilled into every young retail or hospitality worker, and has somehow made its way into the psyches of established business owners.
The problem is, the customer isn't always right, and always thinking otherwise can result in serious disservice to you, as a software developer.
There are a lot of different opinions on the internet about why the clients is always right. He is paying you after all. So, what happens when you and your client's opinion get into conflict? Is he always right? Do you need to hear him?
In today's video I received an email asking me if he should trust his clients, which was suggesting some really bad changes to the web development project he was designing.
What should he do in a situation like this? Should he believe his client and do what he was told to do or should he posiiton himself, tell that the client is wrong and stick with his idea?

How To Self-Publish A Book?
A lot of people dream of writing a book. A few years ago, I would say that this was almost impossible. There were a lot of difficulties, you had to get a publishing company, they had to accept you, you had to have an audience for you to sell, etc. Too many things to think and to take care for just one person.
Nowadays, things are much easier. There is a new modality called "self-publishing", in which you can publish your book without needing a publishing company to get everything done for you.
However, this raises a lot of questions. "How can I self-publish a book?", "Where do I start looking for things?", "What will I need in order to self-publish my book?".
Well, in this video I'll take you step-by-step in the process of self-publishing a book, showing that you can do that too.
Watch this video to find out how to publish your own book.

Last week I went to Tony Robbin's seminar "Date With Destiny". I'm releasing some videos this week regarding the seminar and the experience I could extract from it.
This is another video from the series I'm recording while on the seminar.
Today I decided to make a video while on the seminar telling you a little bit about my first impressions of this experience and how things were there.
I hope you like it!

Will Job-Hopping Hurt Your Career?
Most developers are afraid to change jobs, especially in a short period of time. This term can be defined as "job-hopping", or "To change jobs frequently, especially as a means of quick financial gain or career advancement"
In this video, I received a question from a reader telling me that he was afraid that job-hopping would hurt his career.
He told me that he is changing jobs frequently, mostly in 1-year periods and he is afraid that it might be a bad thing in front of new employers.
So... Does it actually hurt your career to job-hop? Watch this video and find out!

SysAdmin To Software Development: How To Transition?
There are some times when we really need to make a career transition and this can be a very difficult thing to do.
I've talked about transitioning from QA to Software Development but I've never dug into talking about the transition from SysAdmin to Software Development,
First of all, a SysAdmin is is a person who is responsible for the upkeep, configuration, and reliable operation of computer systems; especially multi-user computers, such as servers. The system administrator seeks to ensure that the uptime, performance, resources, and security of the computers he or she manages meet the needs of the users, without exceeding the budget.
To meet these needs, a system administrator may acquire, install, or upgrade computer components and software; provide routine automation; maintain security policies; troubleshoot; train or supervise staff; or offer technical support for projects.
So, as you can see, a lot can be learned from those people wanting to transition.
Wanna know what is the best way to jump right into it?
