So my main goal is to be a great developer. I know that this is very broad and very subjective. I just want to be an all around decent coder, who understands things deeply and who …

This is interesting because I think this is my problem as well. I've tried TODO lists, writing things on paper, but I eventually forget about them. Do you use todo lists? Do you wr…
