People who failed their programming career.

Hi

Let me tell you first...I am one of you. I failed as programmer. I started my career as a programmer but soon I jumped to other things...why I did that...I am not sure.

There was something in me who want to explore everything...who wants to know everything..

But after spending 10 years in IT, I came to know that you don't need to know everything...you are not suppose to all rounder..just follow the Unix philosophy..do one thing right..

I am now trying to get back to programming. I want to be a programmer again......but life has no rewind button..world is different what it was in 2008 - the year I started my journey.

So, please, please don't go by the hype...what is cool..what is hot...just learn the basics and just stick too what you really want to do..doesn't matter if its cool right now or not.

I'd appreciate any comment or if any one want to share his/her experience in comments..
