The choices I made, even the wrong ones,made me who I am today and I am really happy with that.

I would tell my younger self that nothing worth having cones easy. This goes double for knowledge.

I really enjoy my new profession, but by God it wasn't easy.

The choices we have made, made us who we are today - I really like that. It resonates with me a lot.

Tech really is not easy, I'm not sure which is the harder part - learning new technology or languages, adapting your whole thought process or working out how everything connects together...

...but that dopamine rush you get when it finally clicks and it all starts working together is priceless!

It's by far the most rewarding feeling I get from working in this field.

I just realised that, in a sense, I'm addicted to making things work together and as far as addictions go, I'd reckon it's one of the better ones to have.
