Would you please bestow on me the gift of your wisdom?

It can be positive or negative or anything in between.

Programming is much easier to get into than it is to master.
And even if you do master it, it's another thing to work as a team.
Coding is trivial - making it robust and the best it can be is hard.
This isn't meant to dissuade anyone.

@DDonde Thank you. This is quite insightful for a young man. I know engineers twice your age that still haven't figured this out.

If I can share my own wisdom...

The joy of building something as part of a team is far greater than building something yourself.
