discovering hackernews?

but seriously, probably thinking i had to "pay my dues" before I begun my career. Thinking I wasn't good enough to get a job, and I had to spend time at Uni first. It wasn't until I was mid way through my masters before I realised that a job wasn't going to magically appear the day I graduated. I dropped out and never looked back.

Also, thinking I had to shoehorn myself into the industry by working my way up to it from tech support. That was fruitless.
