I was asked a question at a young startup community, “What is the one mistake young professionals should avoid”?
Most of us have heard the story of The Tortoise and The Hare in which a slow but steady turtle beats the fast but arrogant rabbit in the race.

Since 2000, C# Corner has become home to millions of developers and programmers. 15 years later, the community still stands tall. Many people ask me what is the key to C# Corner's success?
“Continuity”
C# Corner may be slow but is a steady turtle.
In my 17 years of an IT career, I've seen many ups and downs. I've seen many rising and falling stars. I have seen authors come to C# Corner and become famous. Some became MVPs, some became published authors. Some got good jobs and salaries. But then they disappear.
“…to reach skies, we must not stop on a mountain”
This is what some of the young guys don't understand. They don't understand that success requires continuity. Success requires continuous and steady work.
