for the love of learning

Easy. Recognize your skills inherent or learned.

Challenge. Only take up a job you can win by iteration, not fail as a result, failure is initial feedback with success as an end result of iteration over failures.

Hard. This is what you want to do in future, what you find interesting or beneficial, your goal, that has to be done strategically over time.

Break down the task into years, months, weeks, days, hours.

Big goal, more patience.
