I have my fav saying:
"Have you ever tired of breathing in your life.....?"
It means we are breathing every seconds in our lives.. right? But we are never tired of breathing and never noticed sometimes. Then, we grow up day by day..
That's is. We need to do our passionate job like breathing..
So, we don't have to count hours in general..
But if it had to say, we need about 10 years to be master at somethings...


Thanks for Nice article, Sebastian.

Thu - you're hitting a nerve with your comment. It's more of a philosophical question, but it is wise to ask:

a) do you work to live -or-
b) do you live your work?

For a long time, I thought I did b), but since I returned from my time abroad I am doubting what I am currently doing. So that's why I have turned my attention to coding to bring all those projects to life that sleep in my mind at the moment. :-)

All the best to you!
