I think you meant,
It was also the friendliest "grammer-nazi" post I think I've ever seen.
The only question is, how do we do it ?
Try working on some interesting projects, and make sure you finish them, not mattter how much time it takes (given that they are technically possible)
Also since you're dropping out, things are going to change
+ Working outside of an organised routine like college with less or no deadlines and exams and staying productive is going to be very difficult, so prepare for it in advance.
+ Organise everything, I would also like to throw in self quantisation here, try it out for some time.
+ The burden to prove your mettle in the eyes of your peers and keeping upto family expectations is also going to create some pressure
+ Doing all this alone could be difficult, so find someone to code with.
+ I guess you already know this, but learn by creating things, and keep building your portfolio. Even if you have a startup in mind, you should keep working on side projects to build the portfolio just as a backup.
+ Stay motivated (Easier said than done)
