This was a great read and i have faced this problem for so long. I have worked as a software engineer/developer for 12 years now but there are a few things that i have noticed that i would want to share. I have figured out in this time that i am not a genius or a super human but then there are people who are born with that ability which is so unfair considering the amount of effort i put daily to write solutions for problems/issues i face. there are people/devs out there who work on niche topics like AI, machine learning systems that help in self driving autonomous vehicles. Dont you think we should compare our selves to them and try to out smart them by putting in more effort? then we are restricted by human factors such as relationships, family and getting tired.
