If you enjoy programming do some development in your spare time. Find a project that interests you. Programming is a tool, master it by all means if that is what you want. However, don't lose grasp of the fact that there are numerous other pursuits you can take up. Learn a language, build a house, learn chemistry, send a rocket into orbit, make an erotic film, excel in martial arts, whatever it is that you want to do, do it. Have a diverse range of experiences and regret nothing in life. Don't just be a developer.
