You need to place your <link> element inside the head section for starters. Your main problem here though is that you need to wrap the h1, h2, ul and p element inside the <header> element which is used to represent introductory content.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Portfolio</title>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet"> <!-- This belongs here like all link elements, title, meta and so on tags do. Its the behind the scenes of the web page that users dont see. -->
  </head>

  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
      <h2>Welcome</h2> 

      <ul>
        <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
      </ul>

     <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget feugiat ante faucibus.</p>

    </header>
