Wow, this is a really great article. My favorite pieces of advice are the last four ones:

> 17. Write, teach, and share what you’re learning

I totally agree. Getting into blogging, and being a part of a blogging community can be a great way to connect with people in your field, and help others along the way.

> 18. Don’t take funding

Yes!

> 19. Take care of yourself first

This is too often under-emphasized.

> 20. Knowing when to let go

Something that we all probably struggle with.
