Mistakes I made (as a developer)

I started working in 2006, a decade ago. Such milestone inspired me to look back and point at the mistakes I did, and the kind of advice I wished someone from the profession had told me.

"Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes."

It takes ten years to make 10 years of experience. There's no other way.

I always try to find someone smarter, than me and reach his level, it's the way I grow

:thumbsup: As an 11 or 12 year old, it was abundantly clear that people of my grandparents' generation were happier and more relaxed than those of my parents. From that point onwards, I've had just the same philosophy towards all things in life I approach. Find someone more skilled and emulate, then become, that which I value.
