15 years in software development - I'd quit my first job earlier. I stayed there for 10 years - should have left at 5. Things went gradually downhill after that. - Spend more time building longer-lasting projects. I kept doing freelance work on the side for quick and small amount of money instead of using my free time to develop something that would benefit me in the long-term. I can't even remember those freelance projects.
