Direct Experience Is Not Enough
I read a lot of books and articles in topic areas that, for some divine reason that I don’t know, interest me. I do it because personal growth and development through doing and interacting with others in a local environment, even though it instills deep understanding and nurtures social bonding, is just too glacially slow for me.
The next best thing to learning via direct experience is to expose oneself to the work and personal experiences of others through reading what they wrote. Even though I’ve never met them, I think of my favorite technical authors as a group of highly competent consultants readily available at my beckon call. How about you? What techniques and practices do you employ to keep on growing and developing?

I keep wondering when you’re gonna run out of fish monikers. But it looks like you’ve got a bottomless well to draw upon.
