It is not everyday that you’ll get essential advice from someone you think had their share of experiences in what you do first hand. There are so many seasoned software engineers, but nothing beats the person you personally know. Especially, if you’ve seen the whole life cycle of software development with them as a teammate or you as their audience, or a direct collaboration.

At times, if you’ll get lucky, what you will get is something life awakening or life changing. And, it would totally transform you as a professional software engineer. Personally, I’ll get the high time of my life when I meet people of this kind of caliber and have the opportunity to work with them.

So what are those things that I personally received? Let us see.

1. Start with the basics. Continuously improve your code.

You must have a very good foundation of your coding capabilities. The rest will come into place once you build this foundation “solid”. All future knowledge, experience and career changes would purposely need your foundation to back it all up and to help you on any upcoming challenges.
