I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to learn Clojure on the job. A majority of my work is on the web side (JavaScript, et al.), so learning Clojure was a fun and interesting challenge. After the initial hurdle of getting used to a Lisp I found the language very liberating. I definitely approach problems very differently than I did prior to learning Clojure, even when flipping back to JavaScript land. I find my approach is vastly different that it was before. The best way to describe my way of thinking is that I'm very "data first" now.
