To be a good developer, master the fundamentals of computer science—algorithms, data structures, and design patterns. Write clean, maintainable code and follow best practices. Embrace version control, testing, and documentation. Stay curious: constantly learn new technologies, languages, and tools. Communicate clearly with teammates and ask thoughtful questions. Prioritize problem-solving over memorization. Build projects that solve real problems, and contribute to open source. Be open to feedback, and review others' code constructively. Develop a growth mindset and resilience—bugs and failure are part of the process. Above all, enjoy the craft. Passion and persistence are your greatest tools in becoming great.

I would say "Every day is a school day" is good developer mantra.
Totally agree about the growth mindset part. How do you keep motivated when you're stuck on something new for days?
All things in one place.Well written!
