Do not build a plateau on the floating sand--a reflection on it technology learning

We often see the elders of Daniel, feeling that our generation lives in the best of times, with a huge amount of learning resources and exponential growth of new technology and knowledge.

Indeed, if you are a college student of this age, or a novice programmer, you will find that there are too many choices, even a lifetime of information, books, documents ... But, as an experienced person, is such an environment really the best fit for programmers to grow?

The choice is many, but causes many people to lose the direction, neglects the basic knowledge technology key. As Liu Weipeng in "Dark Time", it is critical for programmers to distinguish between essential and non-essential knowledge. Learning a lot of seemingly "tall" hot technology, but the basic knowledge of computer science, this situation is everywhere, almost become a phenomenon. In the final analysis, the general impetuous phenomenon in today's society is brought to the study of technology. This is what we should avoid, only seize the "invariant", will be in the fast-changing tide of survival more durable.

Knowledge is growing and our focus is slipping. Concentration is extremely important, and if a person has not experienced a state of continuous concentration on one thing, it is difficult to make a contribution in a certain field. Simple, focused, and stick to the secret of success in almost any field, any thing. How to solve the problem of lack of focus? The answer is very simple: "People think that focus is to say yes to what they focus on, but instead, focus means saying no to hundreds of good ideas, because we have to choose carefully." "The secret is to set your own goals and to remove any interfering factors (even good ideas or knowledge) that are not related to it, but only to enhance your focus and persist in order to maximize our benefits (time complexity and spatial complexity).

Word, "Do not build a plateau in the floating sand." In this impetuous environment, to maintain their tranquil serenity, sinking heart, don't lose yourself.
