This was 13 years ago. The turning point. I was broke as hell, jobless, fresh out of drug rehab with a new kid. I just started learning to code, but had no clue where I was going in life. I still had a feeling that everything would be ok. Always try and be hopeful for the future

- Many people in tech are cocky and arrogant, and act like they know everything. In my experience, the smartest people are the ones that don't have the constant urge to prove how smart they are to everybody. Instead, they are always looking to learn from others.
