I think you make a good point, and I've seen it echoed a few times in this thread.

It seems like the best way to keep improving is to keep busy. Make things just to make them. Keep trying new things and finding new ways to challenge yourself.

Honestly, this is good advice. While writing this post, I believed that reading textbooks was the most important thing for me to do. I'm glad this isn't necessarily true!
