If you reach a point where you feel like quitting or feel unsure, don't quietly give up, do your due diligence and post here for help.
I will add more careers, skills, trainings and what not each day.

Each day, I will give you a small task to read and do:
I will share tips and ideas so you can improve yourself. I will also talk about job markets and the housing in those markets with the industries that serves them. Since I tend to be IT based, that's what I will cover first.
Day 1:
I will start with Comptia A+
Price and type:
Jobs: Comptia A+ Entry Level Jobs, Employment | Indeed.com
Salary for entry level: $15-20 a hour depending on city.
Types of jobs available will be mainly help desk but that should just encourage you to get more experience and certs.
Qohelet take: I usually recommend this for brothas who tend to be a mix of blue collar w/ white collar chill. I.E. your typical coli poster. This doesn't have a lot of coding in it so you do not need a strong math background. You just need to determined and get some hands on experience.
The Career Path for this type of person who receives this certification is a System Administrator which means you need to get more certs. You do not need a degree. Most tend to go Hardware, Services and Infrastructure while others in this field tend to go Storage and Data where there is more money involved.

Prof Messer is dope at this: Professor Messer’s CompTIA 220-901 and 220-902 A+ Training Course « Professor Messer IT Certification Training Courses
This is a good message board: A+
Here was a good opinion:
If you need a book, Mike Myers is the way to go: | Half.com
Also, if you live in a city that has programs for under-served people who need a job, most tend to have free programs for residents to get certificated. On top of that, they do hands on work which is something many of you might want to look into. In DC, we got Byte Back | Tech within Reach
Day 1 Homework:
Watch the course Introduction: Professor Messer’s CompTIA 220-901 and 220-902 A+ Course Overview « Professor Messer IT Certification Training Courses
Also watch:
1.1 – BIOS and UEFI
BIOS and UEFI (7:30) | BIOS Configurations (6:03)
BIOS Security (5:00) | Installing BIOS Upgrades (7:05)
This should put you in a good place.
Tomorrow will continue the on the A+ learning series and we will also touch on Communication and why is communication so vital for the Black man and woman in today's society and how can I improve my communication skills and what is it that employers, employees and potential customers want from you in terms of getting your message across.
Interested idea for a topic. Me and some brehs on higher learning were discussing an idea for a crowd-sourced development initiative :

Open source development where any coder on the coli can join in. Some people seem to agree with the idea.

You guys are wasting your time. Something like that wouldn't work on the coli. People here have a short attention span and lack discipline. Unless you give these kids free money and spam them with pics of big booty hoodrats they're not going to give a fuuccccck

I will try to look into this. 
This looks interesting. Great thread. I'm gonna have to bookmark it. I want to see if I save up to build a computer first so I can learn all this. But I'll definitely keep following this thread for research purposes.

I know I could pass it with the experience I have but my anxiety makes it difficult
nice
Looks interesting at work right now but I'll take a look on my break
Ive been in the IT industry since 2000. Ive seen many people make great leaps from the helpdesk. Especially those the go out and work with customers. If you have a good attitude and work ethic, people will notice and think of you when a project begins or a position opens up.
