Learn sales first or programming?

[GRIT]

Hi all,
Really enjoying the advice and ideas in this forum! Great community here
I have 2 months of holiday before university starts again and I was wondering what I should do.
My end goal is to freelance and then eventually a tech startup but I know I need to do something fast - to prove my parents that I can drop out of university and still be successful.

Plan A: Initially, I was planning on getting a sales job, and then using my spare time to 70% learning sales and 30% coding. I do know some coding e.g. data structures, basics of C.
Plan B: My other idea is to learn coding intensively these 2 months and THEN focus on learning sales skills and getting freelance clients on upwork or whatever the sites are. It's not easy to learn a lot of coding if I don't devote much time to it these 2 months and learning sales requires practice over time as it is a soft skill.

What are your thoughts? Should I go with plan A or plan B or do you have any other suggestions?
