I finally finished reading (and making notes) about The Passionate Programmer. It was an excellent read and I would recommend it to anyone who needs advice on how to improve their career in software development / engineering. 10/10
I've got a big action plan about how I should be improving myself both in and outside of work. I've had thoughts about this before in general, but the book really spells it out about the techniques on how to make small and large career improvements in terms of technical development, direction, etc. I really wish I had read this book after I had graduated my undergraduate degree, I feel like I've been left behind for the last decade.
That took me 2 weeks of sustained conscious effort to get through the book, which is only 200 pages long. And so I have a thousand things to do and explore on how to build myself and my career up. It's exciting and fun, I'm a bit concerned that I don't know how I'm going to devote time during a typical week (and exercise! And hobbies!) into the week. Well, guess I'll find out sooner or later how I'm going to manage my time.
