I recently heard some very sage advice and I’d like to share it with you:

“Don’t chase people. Be you, do your own thing and work hard. The right people who belong in your life will come to you, and stay.”

I would like to add to that by saying that if you work hard at learning new things (be it a new programming language or technology) the rewards will enrich your life and career. To spark some new interest, here is The Daily Six Pack.
