In the speaker’s explanation, instead of asking how to get jobs, promotions, or recognition, developers should ask how to become more valuable and capable.
Hear it at 0:00 →the most frequent questions I get from you guys are things like hey how can I get a six-figure job as a developer how can I get the promotion to senior how can I get more recognition and and as much as I understand where you're where you're coming from I think that's not the best mindset to go about it look the money you make as a developer the promotions The Prestige will always be proportional to the value you add to your team and to your company so I think a better question to ask rather than how do I get X it's how do I become X how can I become more valuable to my employer so they pay me six figures how
can I become the kind of developer people look up to like a senior instead of focus on the getting now we are focused on the giving and is the giving that will get you what you want
