Approach every technology you encounter like a box. Look at the box, weigh the box, play with the box, figure out how it behaves when you interact with it. And then, the most important step, open the box and look inside to understand how it works. Often you'll find a number of new boxes to explore. In my experience, the people that do well in this industry are the people who aren't afraid to look inside the box. Also remember that every box was crafted by fellow humans like you and me.
