Today is my birthday! 🎂🎉🎈
...
It's an extra #special day because this exact time last year I got one of the best #birthday #gifts I've ever received, an offer letter from SoFi.
...
The joy was (and is still is) too real 💃💃💃
...
Digging deeper, I realize that all #presents are not created #equal some you get for no reason && some you get because you earned them- I say this with great #humility
...
Apart from the great #pay #benefits and working with a great team (including my boo oneuptim ), this job has created an #environment that has given me an amazing #opportunity to grow- both personally && professionally.
...
Through all that, I've learned that there's really no way I would've received that gift without #working hard over the years.
...
#hardwork 💪=== #success 💰
...
I've gotta go celebrate 🎉🎉🎉 (aka get a #byte && #code) but first, here are my #bytesized tips for you today:

1️⃣ Put your head down && put in the work
2️⃣ Surround yourself with people that build you
3️⃣ It rarely gets easier, you just get better- trust the #process 💯
...
The best way to wish me "happy birthday" is to like && share this #post with #everyone that might find it #helpful
...
Thanks devherobrand 🥰 for the 👕
