I like #5: "You'll never get smarter alone"
I find myself doing a lot of study on my own and my analogy is this:
When you're learning something new alone it's like climbing a sheer wall but when you learn from others it's like they're throwing you a rope from the top. It's so much more efficient to learn from others. When I make it into tech I'll always toss the rope down.
