Do a little more than expected. That's where the magic happens. That's how you grow and improve. That's how you build connections, and get freelance work or meet that cool guy who starts an exciting startup, or get recommended for that job at whatever corporate you want to join.

Improve a little bit every day. Honestly this has given me the most returns. It doesn't have to be much at all - find a nicer IDE theme, memorize one shortcut, read up documentation on that command you use a lot but never understood.

Explore things that interest you, not necessarily the one that seems like the next career step. When you're young, your hacker instinct is probably more accurate than most of the data and buzzwords going around.
