Super nice article thanks <3 . I would like to add that if you give your best every day as a developer you don't have to blame yourself! Giving your best also includes things like relaxing, detaching, time with your family, playing a game. Being a developer is about you! Embrace that as I do :) !

Great addition, this is also what has helped me get over imposter syndrome, mostly :P

There are a couple quotes that I think encapsulate all of the above quite well. They went something like: "work is not your life, work is part of your life", and also "work to live, don't live to work"

I will internalize the quote you shared. It is so true. I will try to enjoy the ride. Thank you!

Thank You so much. I am learning every day...this symptom won't go away for sure, it's part of our journey. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger as they say.
