Number 3 and 4 are soooooo true though! I especially love the 'The way you pick up soft skills from them will hurt your career much more' bit. So much truth, thank you for sharing 🙏

>>> "The truth is, if you want to get far in your career, for the vast majority being a good coder will only get you halfway there. The rest is non technical." >>> Truth!

Great writing, Ryan! Rule 1) is 💯

Whether you're a solo freelancer or a full-time employee, nothing builds trust and credibility faster than showing that you care!

"I won't expect you to know sh*t but I will expect you to give a sh*t." - best advice there is. Come with an energy and apetite for learning, take ownership of your tasks, and things will work out from there.

I really resonate with settings boundaries. Not only do you feel free to pursue life outside of work but you also set up clear expectations for success!
