Life:

- Reflecting myself constantly. (Looking at things from another perspective often allows you to learn not only from your own, but also from other peoples mistakes)

- Completely turning off TV and other mainstream media for several years.

- Starting to leave my comfort zone occasionally to extend it constantly.

Programming / Profession:

- Accepting the fact that, although being good as a programmer, I'm even better in managing things and mentoring/coaching. (accepting this was hard: i love doing programming)

- Focussing on the big picture and final results instead of wasting time with unimportant details.

- Reading/Reviewing/Discussing more code than you write actually results in writing better code and being more productive.
