Most importantly, you should think about the future of every action you do.

Thank you for this Joel you gave me a broad mind today about what should I expect i the future, I always ask my self "what developers do in real world and what should beginner expect when in the future I get my first job?" By overthinking made my stomach crumpled. I was thankful I came across twitter to meet developers like you who shares their experiences, this is very helpful for me as a beginner.
