title:
  push on, learn and code;

by:
  japhy, (hacker, teacher and lecturer);


listen closely, accept my $simple, request;

use less dummies'books;
carefully, select books;
  O'reilly, for instance;

open books and study them;
read each page, $absorbing, retaining;
do { not whine },
push on, do { not quit };
if (tempted) { don't, please }
  
for (keys hold) { truth, wisdom, power }
these: keys are, obviously, books;
  
link knowledge => practice and link practice => habit;
sort things out, carefully;
accept criticism, graciously, for wizards... abound;
sleep too, do { not agonize and pop veins };
shutdown sometimes, rest;

oh and please, remember; 
while (coding) { check for bugs }
CHECK { again and again } 

send it, gleefully, out if done;
rejoice, party, celebrate and sleep;

then: code, again, next time;
