Think Real Hard

This resonated a lot with me. I spent way too much time trying to find a silver bullet. This one thing that I am missing.

I've never worked in silicon valley so I thought there must be some magic that makes everything better.

But from talking to people in open source related slack groups, on conferences, and to great senior engineers I came to understand that all I was missing was the courage to follow through with whatever ideas I had. No magic solutions. Just hard thinking.

Writing down the problem always does the trick.
