Thanks for sharing Fredrik, that's an interesting perspective! I guess as you grow in your career there will always be new things to be inexperienced and insecure about! I'm definitely in the newbie stage of feeling I'm too slow, but I realised recently that a part of that is because I'm spread quite thin at the moment. There's so much to learn and some of it isn't techncial, but none the less I expect it will pay off in the long run. Are there any non-technical skills that you feel helped you earlier on in your career?
I would say that the most useful skill I had was my personality. I used to be a coach and learned early on how to connect with people in a meaningful way. This meant that I knew how to dedicate myself to hard work and it made it easier to get help since people felt that I was listening and valued their time.
@@FredrikChristenson Interesting, your background makes a lot of sense given your dedication to teaching others and producing these podcast/videos. Being teachable is definitely something I strive for too!
