Good article. And I agree, at least partially, with all your points :)

The wierd thing is, that probably even hearing those advices at the beginning of your career, won't make you believe in them completely :D

Sometimes you just need to experience those things and learn them the hard way. Also had some quite rough disappointments at the beginning of my developer careers but... now I'm glad it happened at the beginning :) When I got back on my feet I realized it just made me stronger and better prepared for next chellanges :)

Anyway :) Always good to read some advices and see things from someone else perspective :) Thanks for sharing :)

I couldn't agree more with this.
People usually read/see what they want to see.

Unless someone experience the pain, brain might not learn the lesson.
