“As software developers we’re paid to be professional learners. People hire us (or should hire us) for what we are capable of learning, not for what we already know.”

One last thing is a short Jocko Willink (author of Extreme Ownership) quote
"You already know what the right thing to do is...
You just gotta do it"
