Milestones
My road in life took a while to figure out.
I was fascinated by technology, solving puzzles was always exciting.
Started my BSc during high-school. Challenging task, as I needed to "create" more time in a 24hrs day.
Started to get up one hour earlier.
Found my first job and discovered that failure is a major part of success.
Started to fail more, this accelerated the things I learned which, in place, pushed me higher.
